I don't really understand how the w126 ignition lock and parts that go with it work, but I did have to pay for all of it once. I thought just by getting a new ignition cylinder with keys, which I didn't get from MB, would fix the problem when my original key stopped turning the original ignition. I couldn't get the tumbler out so I had it towed to the nearest foreign repair place around.
BIG mistake, like an $802.00 mistake. (after i saw the bill.)

Anyways, they used the aftermarket cylinder and supposedly ordered a MB $350.00 lock. My question is can I destroy the ignition, and have a key made with just the lock?

I hope so, because my mech. supposed to be in the process of having the ignition drilled (destroyed).

Thank You for ALL replys and comments!
