Has anyone changed door locks and ignition?

[mk3valver]

Has anyone here ever done this? Is a diy jobbie or best left to a mechanic? Cheers

Easy enough to sort, door locks are easy as you replace the complete handles, ign switch I replaced the complete inner column on mine took around 3 hours all in with tea breaks.

Adi have you done yours mate? I've just watched a video on youtube on how to do the door handles but the ignition barrell sounds a bit more difficult and I'm not the most mechanical person in the world so help would be much appriciated! Also do I need to recode the new key? Cheers

Oh and what about boot lock?

Easy, remove the inner panel and the handle / lock assembly is bolted in with 2 bolts.

So it comes out as one piece and goes back in as one?
