Great!
I’m so glad we are still getting parts for these amazing vans.
Still, if you need lock advice or want your keys to match Steve is amazing.
I once went to a local lock shop several times for some easy key work and it never worked correctly. Then later I had similar work and a friend offered to do the re keying and he did it in moments. It turns out he worked in a lock shop for years as a young man. So finding the person with the skills is the challenge. And for VW bus matching keys or for fancy keys or exact cut from the key code he is amazing.
