Ok here is the deal. I go to work this morning and my drivers door lock works without problem. I go back out to my car to go home for lunch and my key won't work in the lock mechanism. So i try it a few more times and i finally take a close look at the lock itself. Appears that somewhere, somehow the area around the key insert has been flared out, like someone tried to pry it with a small knife or screwdriver, plus the tumbler is pushed back into the handle slightly. Then I try the key again, and it works this time, but grinds for the whole turn to the unlock position like it is hanging up somewhere. I check advance/napa noone has a listing for it and said it a dealer part. Does anyone know of a place i could get another (even if i have a separate door key, i don't care) besides a dealership? I'm afraid if I go to satan for a set of tumblers it'll cost more than doing a power lock conversion with an aftermarket kit from slickcar. The local junkyards here won't sell a handle or lock unless the door is unable to be sold and i'm not paying 80 bucks/door just for the lock...
