spares wanted

[blackbeltuk]

Hello.
I'm in need for a few spares for my s type. I need a fog light. and as I can't lock my car with
my key that I have. I'm looking at replaceing the ignition barrel and hopefully the door locks
with keys from the same car if I can do that. Can anyone point me in the right direction as
where to start looking. Could I use the barrel hand door locks from a mk2.
Thanks in advance Ricky.

Hi,

You could try http://www.s-v-c.co.uk/ for your lamp, they specialise in lighting, mainly for kit cars, but I have replaced the MkII and Marina lamps with H4 lamps from them and been very pleased.

Door locks try David Manners or SNG Barratt, as the ebay fairies watch these forums some may appear on there.

Hello all,

a trick that can be done to make a key fit a barrel is to put the wrong key in the barrel and file off any projecting pins. Useful if you have a mismatched door and ignition key. I would modify the ignition barrel to a door key rather than vice versa as it is marginally more secure, i.e. fewer keys will fit the door. Not that they are particularly secure anyway, as I found it quite easy to 'break into' my MK 2 when I locked the doors with the keys in the ignition.
