Well, I'm slowly crossing off my list of things to do to the 914 before school starts back up, and have come to getting one key to work for everything in the car. Currently the lock key works the door lock and the rear trunk, and I have a completely different key for the ignition. What is the tumbler from? it is a locksmith special? The plan is just to replace it with a used 914 lock/tumbler assuming I can find one. Here's to hoping they didn't mess up anything in the steering column when they put it in...
