Type 25 Tailgate Lock - 1985-92 (Non Central Locking)

This replacement tailgate lock barrel is designed for Volkswagen Type 25 / T3 models from 1985 onwards without central locking. It provides a secure locking point for the rear tailgate, restoring proper operation where the original lock has worn, seized or failed.

The lock barrel works by engaging internal locking pins when the key is inserted and turned, allowing the tailgate latch mechanism to open or remain securely locked. Over time, lock barrels can suffer from wear, corrosion or key damage, leading to sticking keys, difficulty turning, or complete lock failure. Replacing the barrel ensures smooth operation and reliable security for your vehicle.

This unit is supplied with matching keys and is ideal for replacing faulty or missing tailgate locks. It is manufactured to match original specifications for correct fitment and ease of installation.
