The Lock-set

Well just prior to my buying the car I was notified that there was an issue with the keys....There were none.
Bummer....
Then I was notified of a second issue out of some kind of frustration to move this key-less beauty around, the ignition switch had been jammed into power mode allowing the steering to move freely without locking.


Thus needing replacement...easy but not really lol lock-sets have been discontinued for this car for a long while the only real way to fix this issue and maintain some kind of oem-ness is to wait for a fellow FD owner to part their car out. So I waited....for about a day. I was fortunate enough to have a generous RX7Club forum member send me his from a car he'd parted out. Hard to come by to say the least...Thank you sir!


Did some refreshing old school on the right new school on the left

Updated and installed, just a note replacing the rear lock is a pain in the ass....well the lock itself is easy the rear bumper is another story not hard at all just a pain. Who knew it was design to stay on through and beyond the test of time. I love this kind of crap, it really is all about the journey!
