Hi there Owen,
Mike tried his key's from the 37 120 but to no avail. He had to take the whole assembly out to take to the locksmith. That's done and she runs smooth as a new engine however I've a leaking water pump main seal and that's further bucks for replacement. So I'm just going to put up with it, keep a constant eye on the water level as I don't think there's an easy fix to it. The rear brake lights aren't on so I need another key cut for that and the doors. I'm hoping I can reach in with a coat hanger, grab the cables and just plug the leads back together with the rear seat removed. Hoping its nothing else!
I'd upload more photos but my cameras resolution is too high with some shots to upload.
