Thumbs up

I have to replace the Ignition barrel and door locks in a few days time, i know the doors will be fairly easy, but how much of a task will it be to install the new ignition barrel? thanks.

the ignition is pretty easy, you take off the plastic covers and there are 2 bolts holding it on. if they are the original ones, they dont have heads on them so you have to use a chisel (they arent tight)

I use a hacksaw to cut a "slot" in them.

Then it's just a screwdrivers turn away.....



Remember to tighten the new bolts 'till they break.
