Door lock fell out.....

The other night, I went to unlock my door, and the locking mechinism came out with the key when I removed the key.....Now I guess I would need to get a lock from the wrecker, and I have to get a key cut, and have 2 keys? Any other options?

Please put all of your questions into one post. You'll get better responses.

To answer your question on this particular thread, yes that will work. It has worked for others. Or I guess you could get as many locks from a doner car as possible so you'll need only one key?

try getting ALL the locks from a wrecker...and just switch out everything...mazdatrix i think sells a full set but its really expensive...maybe mazda recyclers or rx7 world has a used set...will never be a cheap as a junk yard but unlikely you'll find a complete set...

good luck

Don't switch out everything. Keep the keys to your storage and glove boxes original. It'd be like having a valet key!

Take the lock from the wrecker to a locksmith and have him match it to your old key. Should only cost $5-$10.
