Hi All,
I have a minor problem with a Toyota Corolla. The key barrel on the drivers door is worn and needs to be replaced. I have thought of swapping this with the key barrel to the passenger door, however I’ve been told the two are actually incompatible.
If possible I would like to avoid buying from a main dealer. (they usually have high profit margins for the car brand name to be on the product). Also, to the best of my knowledge, car dismantlers don’t usually sell them as they usually sell the key with the ignition and not the key barrel.
If anyone is aware of (and can reference) any alternative way to source a Toyota Corolla key barrel, I am all ears (eg Ebay, an internet retailer, a motor factor shop, some guy who sells them at a car boot sale, or something that you have thought of that I haven’t)
Any information will be greatly appreciated, no matter how small. Thanks In Advance for all responses.
