The key that I have for my 914 does not work in the door locks. Where should I get replacement door lock/ key set? This is what I need:

If I search the internet, I find a single lock for over $120 here: Door Lock

Is there a more affordable alternative?

The way I got all my locks to work with the ignition key is pretty simple. And, there is a great thread by marb on how to do it .
I removed the cuclinder from each lock; removed all the wafers; then rearranged and exchanged wafers until the key would work

Thanks. My key is in pretty bad shape. I'm considering changing the ignition cylinder as well if it doesn't cost more than the car did. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
