After reading TM Corey's almost stranded post, it brings a question on my car, the locks are almost impossible to unlock from the outside key hole. I worry my well worn key could break off in the keyhole. What is the key code for a 74' and do you think it is worth it to try and make a spare key with it ground a little less because it is worn?

Are you sure it is your key or the cam inside the door pull? I think most of us have had the replace the cam inside our exterior door handles.
How is the key in the ignition? The lock smith I used was great and very familiar with VW style locks. I actually took him a broken worn key and cut me a new one in no time at all. You may be as successful in finding a similar locksmith in your area. This did make a difference in locking and unlocking the doors too.
