I need to do some 'sperimenting.  The only currentlly availible aftermarket ignition switch for pre-68 Beetles doesn't use a VW key.  I've FINALLY found the key blank number . . . it's an Ilco NE10.  The problem now is that I know what what I'm looking for, but I can't find it!  I've searched for over a month and can't find anyone who carries this blank.

So, I decided that if I can't find the correct key, I'll find one close enough to make it work.  I've dug through thousands of different key profiles I have (thanks to Ret.BugTech!) and I've found 3 different ones that will enter the keyway.  Two are probably too loose to work, but one seems to be a pretty good fit.  My problem is that I have a switch to test the fit of the keyway . . . but I don't have a key for it and it doesn't have any type of code on it, so I can't really tell for sure if it's gonn'a work.

Soooooooooo . . . anyone have an aftermarket switch in their pre-68 bug and want a free key . . . or two or three?  I'll "try" to make you one just to see if it works.
