Hi All

Put the Mk2 Tuscan away in a mates garage whilst another project occupied my garage. Just gone to take it out and found that I have lost the isolator keys, the one that goes in the little pocket area to the left of the steering wheel and fits into a 1/4 turn barrel in the centre console. Can I just buy a new lock and change it, is there anyway to bypass it. Need to sort it out quickly as taking it to Europe in about 3 weeks. Any advice greatly appreciated. Going away for the weekend and was so looking forward to some roof off motoring....not happy

I never use it ... just use the button on the keyfob . Must be different on a Baboons Bum dash , I guess you have a start/stop button

Not sure What a babboons ass dash is!!! But yes I do have a start stop switch, but it's the isolated key, like a key you would use to get into a fruit machine. Can I just buy a new key and switch and replace it and if so where do I get it from

I have a later model, where you fit the key in the barrel turn the key which lights the dashboard, push the button on the key and its all ready to start, there is a flashing light close to the barrel which take the unit that looks like a small memory stick. I have never used it but was told to use it in the event the button on the key did not work. Hope this helps.
