I'm sure I have a cylinder that your ignition key will fit into and if you send me a key I can re-key it to match your doors and ignition. I would run about $15 for the lock and re-keying it.

Notice anything different??? Yes...there are keys hanging from a WORKING 3rd door lock cylinder! Shout out to LockDoc...thanks Leon! Installation wasn't too difficult to figure out even though I've never done it before...and the PO did a real nice job cutting the notches that locked the barrel into place, so the only adjustments I needed was to the cylinder engagement arm...a little too short. A couple of bends in the right direction was all it took! A big part of this fix was following the lubrication suggestions members passed along my way, so that when it all went together, nothing was hanging up. Thanks to all!
