The key to everything

[printjunky]

Got spring fever re: getting the Rover (74 SIII 88 petrol truck cab bought in Wisconsin late last summer) up and running.

So, I have one ignition switch, one complete door latch and one door latch that someone drilled a hole all the way through trying to drill out the cylinder (examine top of shoes, shuffle feet, shake head).

And no key.

I'm not too concerned about the doors locking at the moment, but do I need to buy a new ignition swith with key, or can the one I have be re-cylindered like the doors can? And if so, can my Rover be single-keyed, doors and ignition alike again (ie: should I just order matching cylinders now)?

Thanks as always for any insight,
Shawn

I'd say that you would be best off to get all new cylinders from our hosts. I've yet to try it myself but the upside is that you would have all new locks and they would all be keyed the same.

As far as I know, they are all removable and switchable but ask first when you call.

Cheers!
