re code topbox locks

[wreck diver]

Hi.
Has anyone recoded a 1200 rt topbox lock?
Any advise please.
The topbox is unlocked and i have a plastic key for it but want to recode it to a metal key.
many thanks.

I've done it, you will need a paper clip, fixed to a slim screw driver, its a bugger sometimes to get the barrel out, there is a small spring loaded bit that needs to be depressed, whilst the key is in the lock. You will find a better description of how to do it by a search, try ebbo's website.

Thanks for that.
Looks a bit more tricky than the vario topbox recoding.
