PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. THIS IS THE STEERING LOCK ONLY.  No key, no tumbler, no electrical switch NO instructions  (see below for additional items. This is the part you need to replace when your ignition key continues to stick even after installing a new tumbler assembly. In over 70 percent of the cases involving a severely sticking key, I have found you need to replace both the tumbler AND the steering lock if you hope to have a lasting repair. They tend to wear each other out if the problem is not corrected early on. In cases where the key just begins to stick slightly while turning, you can sometimes get by only having to replace the tumbler assembly.

This unit also fits the 126 1986 - 1987 300SDL. Will NOT fit 124 chassis. This is a brand new OE manufacturers Ignition steering lock assembly. Does not include Ignition switch! CLICK HERE to view switch. NO INSTRUCTIONS or other tools / hardware are included

IMPORTANT: Instructions on removing the old lock assembly from your steering column are NOT included with this kit. If you are not familiar with this procedure we recommend you purchase Kent's manual on Steering Lock Removal and Replacement. This guide is available separately. CLICK HERE to order. 

If you need to know how to install a key tumbler into this lock assembly those instructions are included when purchasing a new tumbler and keys. 

WARNING: If your key is stuck in your ignition you will have to drill the lock assembly to get it out (procedure is included in manual above). When that happens you will need a complete new assembly with metal cover cap. To order a complete assembly CLICK HERE.

EARLY 123 DIESEL OWNERS: If you have an earlier model 123 chassis 1977-1980 240D 300D 300CD or 300TD you can not purchase the older style lock or tumbler assembly any more.  YOUR ONLY OPTION for new replacement it to buy a complete unit and install your electrical switch on the back.
