Thanks Mike,
One longer barrel in mine. I have taken the wafers out of one of my existing door locks and put them into my boot lock barrel. Now waiting to get a key for my original lock number. That way I should have a working boot lock again. Unfortunate that I had to destroy the original wafers -as it turned out - there was half of a key broken inside the boot lock barrel anyway so I would have been going nowhere regardless.
Lesson learned;- find out what the number is on your door lock first.
This is an exploded view of how the boot lock is configured if you move from the top down:-
Waiting to find out now if the Land Rover key supplier can supply locks with my original number which would leave me with only one key needed for all locks.
There is bound to be a word ending with ..obia that applies to someone that goes to such bother to follow up details like this - let alone document it in a Forum. All part of sharing the knowledge base as far as I am concerned.
Regards. Bill
