Removing boot/trunk lock barrel
« on: January 14, 2017, 05:16:53 »
I'm trying to key alike the boot lock but I can't get the inner barrel out to do this. Does anyone know how?
Thanks for any help...

Do you have your lock off your car or is your trunk locked?

Lock is out of the car and the large barrel is removed...  Just the inside of this barrel to get into where the brass bits to change around to re key it.

I don't know how to take it apart.  Did you talk to a lock smith?

That's perfect.  Can't work out how I missed that link.
