Title: Door locks/handles
Post by: wurth on 08 January 2011, 20:48

I bought a new drivers door handle from gsf a few weeks back, but my orginal lock was too big to fit in, so I had to use the new lock and key which was supplied.

The passengers side handle has broken on my 1.3, and it has all original keys, so anybody know anyway round getting the original lock to fit (apart from boring the hole out)?

Also do gsf still sell the rubber gromet that goes in the accelerator pedal arm/cable end?

I just bought a whole new accelerator cable from gsf and the rubber grommet wasnt in the pack,
Has yours perished or does your cable just keep coming out,
Cause i thought my grommet was bost, But the new cable solved the problem..

My brommet has split in half, so pops out of the hole.

And i want to use my ORIGINAL lock in a new door handle, so do the ebay ones work with my lock ?

YES

use the barrel which will fit the handle.

remove all the locking pins from both barrels (pins should be interchangable) and refit in the right order (in the correct sized barrel) to suit your key.

DONT LOSE ANY OF THE PINS!! they're tiny buggers!
