Could just go to a scrappy, get two new handles with barrels and key and swap the handles over without taking the barrels out. Of course it will mean having two keys one to get in and one for ignition. Unless you get the ignition barrel aswell. SHould be no more than about £30-40.

Also worth investing in some ADPs too. (armor door plates)
