I forget now just what I did, but it involved throwing out the worn leaves (pins in most padlocks) and putting things back together. Easy to do and worked great.
Will a cylinder from a door work in the ignition? Maybe thats the question.

In a w123, door cyl will not work in the ign. Door cyl come apart easily to get to the leaves, Ign cyl do not, or I have not been able to figure it out yet. Give it a go on your 190 and let us know if you figure out how.
