Chasing an early ignition complete, and door lock barrel, keyed alike, all in good nick. Thanks

I think in the early days Mike, there was a door key and an ignition key....
Memory not too good....

but someone did say You can change the tumblers so the same key does them all...

I haven't tried that trick as yet...

Thanks Lee, I haven't got either so I thought if I could find a set as such that would be great Cheers Mike

Would probably help you get a reply if you said what you want it for...

I know my 65 beetle is keyed alike for doors, engine lid and ignition if that helps.

Sorry, i am chasing a door lock barrel and an ignition unit complete from a late 50 to early 60's with keys, which have come from the same vehicle ie keyed alike. I am building a car and dont have the said items, even take a set of door handles(which include the barrel) as mine are a little ratty. I am sure there are plenty out ther some where? Thanks

From what i understand till 63 they uses separate keys. I just finish RErestore my car and i did tried with the key smith but cannot be done........hope this helps.

If you're willing to do it by mail order, try this guy, he's supposed to be the world expert on VW locks & keys.
