1) easiest way for me to get a spare key for the hatch? go get a complete lockset and receiver from scrappies? need a new barrel for drivers door anyway

and 2) the inner arch plastic thingies....i see they are held on with big rubber thingies...i tried pulling one off and it just pulled the head off...now before i go and pull all the rest off and break them, never being able to replace the inner gaurd, is there a knack to removing them in tact?

no idea about the ignition barrel
but i think i know what you are saying with the plastic thingies ,they have big round heads ,i chopped a few of them off while removing the skirts on the black beast and replaced them with cable ties ,much easy option me thinks Wink

JB if you need a lockset i can sort you out here also. Only got one key though so youre not gaining anything. Just get one cut from the shoesmith, cost me £4
