When I purchased my 75 rolling chassis I only received one red top key which is the valet key I believe. It works the doors and ignition but it doesn't work the rear trunk or glove box. I'd like to get a black top or master key. When rummaging through the car early on I came across a "card " which says it's a " main key-CLE Principale " and it has a section on the card that has a HC/NC prefix and then 4 digits. I'm guessing this is the key code ? And if it is how do I know it is the correct one for this car ? Lets assume this is the correct key code who can make a key with this information ? Just a dealer ? Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Or just pull the locks and have a locksmith key them to work with your red key.

Yes, It works. I have my red 914/6 keyed to the red key, and Betty's orange 914 keyed to the black key. Makes it easy to tell which key to use.

To do that, take them apart yourself & take out the wafer that has a "ledge" in the center, file out the "ledge", and it will work with the red key (you need a really small file)

Got a picture of the wafer with the ledge? I don't think I've seen one of those.
