awhile back i had posted this topic:

well, all is resolved now. i have a one key system. i know it's not much to get excited about but what a pain it was not being able to open the door for the wife. the local locksmith re-keyed my tumblers for $17.50 each. took the opportunity to clean, degrease and re-lube the mechanisms. everything works smooth and great. thanks to scott mclean for selling me the hard to find ilco dm4 keyblanks.

i still have the panels off and plan to replace with rs style panels. anyone looking for the nla '68 style panels in great shape?

thanks,
bob

Hi Bob - Good to hear everything worked out fine and relatively inexpensive! As luck would have it the Taylor keys (post 1970 Porsche ignition/doors) that didn't work for you now work for me on the 912E - so I'm glad they came back!

About your rearview mirror, I have the 68 912 sunroof coupe I got this summer that had nice parts and enough rust to cause tetanus at 20 feet in places - it has one but I can't recall the condition (will look tomorrow). The car is a CA/AZ car so in some areas it looks fine but the battery to the suspension area, etc - ouch.

Did you (& everyone) catch the discussion on Kurt's 912 in "Spy Game" on the 911 board? I get my two seconds of fame by saying I sold Kurt the heads for the car this summer so it would be ready in time for the cameras

If anyone needs the old style 911/912 key I do have a couple left ...

hey scot, that would be great if you could check on that mirror for me.

i was suppose to go see that spy games movie but missed it due to a longer than expected dinner. might try and catch it tomorrow.
