$17 tumbler vs ~$100 tumbler @ MB
Tumbler in wagon broke...so I'm having trouble deciding if I should have the hassle of two keys (one for doors, one for ignition) for dirt cheap $17...
....or get a matching set at the dealer for $100. Maybe I should go cheap for now, then later down the line when it pisses me off enough swap it out? I have the tool needed to take it out, just right now the key won't turn to position 1...but obviously in the future it will. I don't have a...ton...of money, but is $80 worth it? I don't drive the wagon too much...maybe 1-2 times a week tops.

Is it possible to take it to a locksmith and have him match the lock to your existing keys?

Can you file down the brass plates so that they will accept a worn key?
