In our Outlet Store (http://busdepot.com/outlet.jsp) we have some front door
handles that are missing keys for $45 each, down from $140. These are brand
new genuine VW handles, but some may have a minor scratch or scuff (nothing
major) just from sitting around. You can transfer your existing lock
cylinder to the handle, have the included lock cylinder rekeyed by a
locksmith to match your other locks, or bring the handle to a VW dealer
parts counter and they'll make a key from the key code for about $7.
