so yesterday I felt like i should make it so that my key worked on the locks in my car because i am getting a new job soon and i dont want anyone to go into it. so i took a spare key cylinder we had and re-arraged the pins so that most of them fit, and then took a dremill and grinded them all down so they were smooth. and low and behold, doing that 2 times and some spray lithium greese, and now my doors lock and i can unlock them. yay.

today i am going to do the trunk lock.

Cool, I am glad that people can do things like that AND make them work.
I'll doing this pretty soon as my (EX-CO driver) broke the key off in the ignition. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/alfred.gif)
Just ordered a key blank from PP and will get this all fixed.
I also "think" I have the spare key from the cool blue teener which I can re-key the racer and then have a spare. Probably a better/ smarter solution.
