Hello all,

I have a Series 1 1957 coming, and I need a full wiper motor, blade and connections, plus a new ignition and key. Alternatively could someone point me in the direction of having a key cut for the existing ignition.
Many thanks for you help in advance.

Cheers

Reg

If you just take the ignition switch to a lock smith ( not one in a shopping centre ) & they will be able to remove the barrel & make new keys or even change the barrel to suit another key of the same type. I had all the locks on my MGBGT changed to be lock alike so I had the one key to fit the ignition , doors , hatch & glovebox, it wasn't that expensive. There is a number stamped into the face of barrel in the old days you could just quote that number & buy a new key or tell the lock smith the number & he would cut it for you. Not sure if they can still do that though.

Reg <br><br>I might have one in the container to suit your '57. Hopefully, I'll get a chance soon to brave the heat and smoke and have a look for you. If I haven't got a '57 dated one, I should have something close. You will have to pull it apart and clean out the dried up zinc ? based grease. Make sure you take note of the positioning and timing of the gear set!<br>Good luck with your project! 5380<br>

If the number is stamped on the barrel, any qualified locksmith should be able to cut a key. I have done this (not for a Landrover) within the last few years.
