Apologies for the thread steal, but out of interest are these keyed differently to the door locks?

No, well not on my RS30. One single-edged key for ignition only, and different one, double-edged, for all of both doors, hatch, petrol flap and glovebox.

Replacement key/barrel sets I see advertised online though don't seem to include those last two.

Thanks for the clarification @gilltech .  My door key doesn't open my hatch lock, but I thought it may have been due to age.  It does however open the petrol flap.  I hadn't even thought of using it on the glovebox lock.

I think/know my spare came out of the parts car and I may have gave the keys to the bloke who took the shell away. Sorry mate but if you want the push button bit its yours .

These locks with keys are hard to find. It took me about two years to find one. This person on ebay sold new ones. He has none listed now, but he might be able to get hold of one. You could ask him.

I think the lock and key was about $60. Of note, for the one I bought the arm was out by 90 degrees and so I had to modify it and rotate by 90 to get it working.

Hi Peter,

I might take you on that offer as my car doesn't have one at all.

Hopefully I can get this rekey'd.

DM'd you

You can open the barrels up with care. They have a number of small parts inside with IIRC rectangular holes that correspond to each key indentation. Suggest you try a locksmith, take the hatch barrel in along with a door barrel and ask him to match the hatch barrel to the door barrel if he can. He might have to fabricate some new bits if they are very different and can't be just rearranged in a different order to suit a given key.
