I know I've seen them before, it's a kit that has all of the round key sets in it. I didn't bookmark it does anyone have that link available? I'm looking for the set that has the 2 door locks, one for the glove box, one for the center console, and one for the rear barn doors. The difference is that they are all keyed the same. fyi I have an 89 gmc v1500 suburban. just having a brain fart right now!
 
Not a clue myself. Ford used to sell a kit that was called the taxi kit that converted all the locks in the car to one key.
When my father's 1982 Lincoln accidentally matched my 1979 pickup truck, I went out and rekeyed everything we had to the same key.
Of course, they were all Fords at the time.

That was wonderful. No one had to ask for a key to move a vehicle. One key fit all. My truck, his truck, my torino and his Lincoln.

We kept that up for years. Every time one of us traded cars, I would put the old locks back in, and use the like locks for the new car or truck.

My father mentioned it to the head of the surgical department of Emory hospital, and he called a locksmith and had all the locks changed on his car, his wife's car, and his two or three daughter's cars.
They were all GM.

He said it made life so much easier in his house.
 
I bought new lock cylinders from GM and had them keyed alike by a locksmith. Ignition, door, tailgate glovebox and a fourth one I can use for something later if I want. It was a while ago, and I had all the locks out by themselves and I brought them to him, but he only charged me like $40 or something.
