British Car Keys
|
|
Wilmot Breeden (UNION) keys were used on early Austin Healey, Jaguar, MG's, Morris, Triumph cars and British motorcycles. The key code number was stamped on the face of the ignition switch. Example; FP 735. On later cars, no key code is stamped on the face of the lock insert. Owner may find a piece of paper with the key code number in the housing of the ignition switch. The original car owner's for later cars also received a metal tag with the key code number. If no key code information for your car, you may want to purchase a car build record.
The door locks, glove box lock, trunk lock will have numbers stamped on the body of the lock (No letters). For example, on my TR 4 the trunk handle steel rod will have ###. You will have to remove the handle to view the three digits number. For the glove box lock, the number is stamped on the lock. For cars after 1967, no key code number is stamped on the glove box housing. I do have a ring of pre-cut keys (FNR, FA, FP, FS & FT) will send to car owner. Will have to insert each key into the lock, determine correct key code number.
The key code number may be listed on the car build record. You can order from British Motor Heritage web page listed on my site. For Jaguar owners see web page to request car information. I would requests the key code number with the inquiry.

The owner is not a locksmith by trade. The information on my web page is to advise restoration shop owner's and car owners. I do re-key lock for the ignition switch, glove box lock and door locks. My web page shows a key interchange link, information about re-keying locks. I have a good selection of used lock insert for the ignition switch. Lock inserts were coded MRN, FNR, FA, FP and FS.
