Ignition lock

Post by EBSTEVE »

Ok so the BII came home last night and I have a title but no key, I have another steering column with key, but I don't want to waste the time swapping them so does anyone have experience with busting the ign cyl itself out :devil: and replacing it with another?

If anyone is uncomfortable posting it in a public forum pleas PM me.

You didn't get any keys? How much did he pay for it?

There are only a handful of keys, I'd go to the junkyard and grab a few. Odd's are you'll find one that works.

Otherwise, you could probably drill it, then pop the new one in.

Don't screw up that colum, I might want it. Mine is getting a little loose.

if you don't want to break anything just call a locksmith. I know an ignition will only cost $10 and the lock smith will cost like $30 but if you want an easy way out that is the way to go. I had it done like 4 years ago just because I didn't want to break anything.
