The 'E' Type Forum

It appears that the various lock barrels may have been replaced over the years so neither of my door locks matched and both were different from the glove box.

Unfortunately I've never had a key to the glove box so I've dismantled the lock mechanism and found a three digit number stamped on the lock barrell, starting with a 9. I'm assuming this is the key number - is that correct? Also does anyone know the correct key type? Most of the classic car key suppliers offer the following types:

FS, TS, FP, RM, MRN, ST, SF, SR, SS, RL, FA, FT, FR, LF ,KTN, EJR, NE, CYD

Alternatively does anyone know of a company that re-lever lock barrels?

Thanks,
Chris

Chris,
Your glove box lock wil probably be original and would be from the FS range and you are correct in the key number being stamped on the lock.

Steve,

Thanks for letting me know. It is an original lock barrel so I've ordered a couple of keys off eBay.
