Outer Door Locks - Help!

[Kruncher]

Hi
I was wondering whether anyone has a spare pair of outer door locks with key(s) for an Ultima lurking in their garage that they may wish to sell? - i.e. just the black outer cover and barrel. I've managed to get one of my keys stuck in mine and it definitely won't come out again! I understand from Ultima Sports they are classic Fiat Panda door locks c. 1980's, which are also no longer obtainable through Fiat dealers. Ultima can supply them, but they are a hefty £48 + Vat each. I've tried my local breakers, but to no avail.

Think I know who will end up fitting those.
Better get my double jointed wrists and elbows working again.

...very kind of you to offer Steve!

yep, they are a pita to get out, especially when someone has used bloody sealant to bond them in...
