If you need to replace your Vanagon's front door lock cylinder, this genuine German VW replacement part is just what you need.
Comes with two keys.
Tip #1: A tiny roll pin holds the lock cylinder in place in the front door handle. This pin can be hammered out (gently) to remove your old lock cylinder from the handle—just be sure to reinstall the roll pin when you install the new cylinder. To re-key this cylinder to your current key, please take this cylinder to a locksmith for correct replacment of the tumblers.
Tip #2: We recommend lubricating the new cylinder with a dry Teflon lube or graphite powder.
Reference numbers can be OE part numbers, superseded part numbers, and compatible part numbers. We provide this information to help ensure you're getting the right part for your needs.
Proposition 65: This product may contain chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
