I purchased a new cable and guide from 914 rubber and went to install
it, the t handle is locked and the keys I have don't work. They don't work on any of the locks. Do I need to drill out he tumblers or any suggestions. Thanks Brian |

Are you able to get into the front trunk?
If not you will have to remove the front bumper and there is a hole in the center of the front body metal right where the latch is located...you can open the lock there. Then you can remove the T handle...there are two small allen head bolts that hold it to the body....soak then good as they are usually hard to remove |
