71 SS454 key canundrum


Recommended Posts

Can someone please clarify what keys operate what locks. My car has square ignition key.  All keys were lost and previous owner replaced steering column with new switch and key. I need to buy a complete lock set but I cannot seem to find any consistency from parts suppliers on what keys do what. I need ignition,doors,trunk,glove box and counsel. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

Square ignition key works the doors and ignition.

Round key works the glove box, center console and trunk.

This is so a car parking guy can open the doors and start the engine but not get into your locked storage.

If you have the correct ignition key and door cylinders you could try to see if a local dealer could rebuild the cylinders to match the keys. When I worked for a dealer years ago we rebuilt them all the time. Good luck
