Hi I have a 54 BD and need to get a key made for the ignition can someone tell me if there is a number on the lock and if so where it is, also who is the best person to make one. :D

Many Thanks Nick..

The number is on the face of the ignition.

For example, P145:


The P series is definitely 54-55. A229 in the background may be an earlier Bus or even Split-Window Beetle.

Thanks I thought it was a scratch on the lock I can see a P but I think I will have to get a magnifying glass to decript the rest any ideas on who could make me a key in the UK :D

Thanks Nick

Gabriel Garcia in Texas. He runs ads on Samba all the time in the parts sections. He is without a doubt, the finest and the quickest.

I also got my key from gabriel, from emailing him the key code to getting my key through the letter box in the uk took about 7 days, excellent service.

A series ignition is super early (I think 50 only) and the rest seem to be P series. My 52 has a P profile key
