Hello, I just picked up a s14 kouki. I am very excited to own the car. It needs some work and I feel at home here coming here for advice.


The car currently is missing a key lock cylinder from the passenger door, and the driver door key cylinder does not fit the key that came with the car.


I am planning on buying a new lock cylinder and getting both of them re-cut to match the current key for the car. Where is the best place to get a new passenger lock cylinder? I saw them for about $80 on ebay, seems expensive.

Is there any tips to this that might help me? I saw a whole lock set for sale for $120 that includes both door locks, trunk lock, glovebox, and ignition lock cylinders. would it save me time and money to go ahead and buy all new locks?

the only thing that doesnt work is the 2 door locks, so I would prefer to just get those fixed if possible.

First of all, read the stickies- in which case, you will find that this is not the correct section for this question.

Second, welcome.

Sorry I did not see a sticky in this section. Wasn't sure if I needed to be in s specific or just general chat. And thanks.

Any ideas?

There is a 'Small Questions' thread stickied in Chat... "Where to buy" stuff fits there nicely.

Read the stickies in the newbie section.
