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?

I had a similar problem with the passenger door of a '74 on purchase. The key would turn but would not lock or unlock the door. Assuming I had to replace it, I removed the entire exterior door handle assembly and removed the cylinder. The problem was merely a blackish, slightly sticky gunk. I suspect the plastic-y lock cylinder seal had turned into a resinous goo and had gotten into it and who knows what the prior owners had squirted into it to free it up.
