F/S Tweet's Lock Re-Key / Repair / Restoration Services, For all of your Lock Needs Options

[tweet]

Does your trunk lock look like something has been chewing on it? Does it stick? Thinking of taking a hammer to it, because it won't close, or worse won't open? Have you nicked yourself on the bubbled chrome? Is it an eyesore on your prized 914? Or perhaps, you have missing, broken parts. Maybe you're carrying multiple keys?

I can repair, restore, or re-key your locks, handles and ignition cylinders. I can also re-key your mismatched locks and handles to match your master key. Don't have a master key? I can take care of that too.

All work is by estimate, and does require that the buyer mail in his/her locks/handles/key for repair.
Turnaround time is 1-2 weeks for re-key services; 2-4 weeks for restoration/repair services; re-chroming is 8-10 weeks. Return shipping will be by, U.S. Postal Service Priority Mail Flat Rate shipping with insurance and tracking, in the United States. International requests will vary by country and require U.S. Registered/Insured Mail dependent upon availability.

NOTE: You must have a valid email account to receive the estimate. You will need to provide pictures of your locks, handles, keys etc. upon request, to receive your estimate. Your return shipping costs will be included in your estimate. If you have questions, feel free to message me.

Hi Dan-
I have a 73 914-6 2.7conv that I've had off the road for 4yrs to "just do a little engine detailing". When I bought the car it had only one key that just worked the ign, nothing else. Of course I put the key in a very safe place... a VERY safe place.

So now, I'd like to find out what it would cost me to have a key made to work my trunk lock (and thereby also, hopefully, the doors, hood, and glovebox) and then to re-key my ign lock to fit that new key. Maybe make that a couple keys...

I have the two locks out and ready to send.

Thanks - Harry
