Glove box key for 1989 scala

Hi

Does anyone have a lock and key for a 1989 scala?

If not does anyone know if it is possible to get a blank ‘VW’ key and then get it cut to my existing lock?

Many thanks

Phil

Get yourself a new lock with two keys and adjust the rest to it except for the fuel lid, you can not take that apart.

Hi

I’ve bought a set of 2 keys and a new barrel but it seems as though the pinch lock is a sealed unit.

Does anyone know a way of removing the lock barrel from the glove box?

Thanks in advance

The lock barrel is held in place by two plastic tabs on either side of the barrel,
warm them up a bit (to avoid breaking) and carefully bend them aside a bit and the barrel will come out.
