I've heard that a door lock can be re-keyed by changing the pieces in the lock but I've not seen the kit or the parts anywhere on the web. I'm tired of using one key for the door and another for the ignition. Also neither key fits the passenger door and trunk. Can the door and trunk locks be re-keyed?
Thanks, Spoke |

Yes, you should be able to do it yourself if you have enough of the right pins. I think there are like 4 or 6 different sizes, numbered accordingly. Just write the pin sequence for the cylinder that is keyed with the key you want to use then rearrange the pins in the other cylinders to match. I think that Pelican or someone even has an article on how to do it. It's really easy.
