Well, I done it now. I took the ignition lock out so I could get the 
shroud around the steering column off  to change my speedo cable. When 
trying to get it back together, the two parts separated and I couldn't 
get them together. To top it off, one of the two tiny little pins inside 
fell out somewhere inside my seat.

I read Dennis Weaver's write-up on the FAQ about the lock, the numbering 
for the tumblers etc. He also states that new locks come with two new 
keys. Couldn't I just get a new lock and have the blank part of the new 
keys cut to fit the doors? Any tips on where to find a new lock? FPN? 
Shonut? Thanks.
