My rear trunk lock and passenger side door handle have both been re-keyed at least twice now. All the little tabs that stick up on the lock cylinder are very small, and you can basically unlock either lock with any 914 key.
Can those "tabs" be replaced, so that I have a somewhat secure 914 lock again? I.e., can you "start over" so the locks only work with one key? -Steve |

QUOTE(kafermeister @ Jun 21 2004, 11:27 AM) tumblers tumblers, yes, that's what they're called. thanks! well, i don't know where to get them new, i recall rich (@ HPH) telling me that he bought new ones once ... easiest way to get ahold of a assortement is to go to your local porsche salvage yard and buy a couple of old 914 locks (just the cylinders, not the whole door handle)! because there's only 4 different tumblers and each lock has like 10 or 12 of them, you get a nice stash out of 4 or 5 old locks ...
