Listers, I have solex style locks in my car - to "pick" them would require depressing 7 different tumblers arranged in a circle to the right depth simultaneously :)
Installation is the same as the originals - I just had to enlargen the hole in the door a little. the levers mine came with however mean that the door cannot be locked/unlocked from inside only via the key from the outside (good from a parked security situation; bad from a carjacking viewpoint or if you want central locking). I overcame this however with some filing in the right spot of the lever. Sorry I cant help with price... As an alternative a friend installed ford 'hexagon' door locks - I think you need EL falcon ones or earlier as AU use an intergrated lock/door latch unit?? Nick - what did you mean about "anti tamper baffles"? > Are you talking about 'Solex' locks??? They require a little hollow round > key. If these are the ones you mean I believe they are quite good.
