Hi
The key that fits my trunk lock does not turn.
I have lubed it well with penetrating oil but it has not started working.
Last night I removed the lock and I see that there is a 6 digit number.
Will this help identify the key to a locksmith?
Is there someone out there that does Triumph key's?
Are they easy to get made by a real locksmith?
Thanks
 
New lock are cheap for the TR6. I went through that and ended up just changing the lock. Maybe you will have better luck.
 
I just ordered a new Wilmot key from Pete at the site TR3driver suggested. It took a bit of time as my email to him originally got blocked into his spam filter, so if you don't get a prompt response, just try again.

While getting the info needed for Pete I discovered that my ignition, glove box, and trunk all use the same key, and the key does not match either number on my Heritage Certificate.
 
I had my trunk, door locks and glove box rekeyed at a locksmith, took the locks off the car and a key blank to the locksmith. He charged me 25 to rekey them. Course this was about 8 years ago.
