    i have a key that is not the original yet it opens the driver side with ease and starts the car no problem, but for whatever reason it wont turn the lock on the passenger side. i kno the answer is probably just that the key is slightly off but i have talked to a couple other 1st gen owners that claim to have the same problem with the original key and i was wondering if anyone knew anything about it, and with any luck how to fix it :goingcrazy:

    You have a keyed lock in the passenger door on the 1st gen? What a luxury! :)
