How to recode most car door lock cylinders to work with any key you have. Used a cylinder out of a 99 Dodge Durango.

Notes:

1) I had the right key when I inserted it which let the barrel come out smoothly. However, most will not have a key that will bring all the pins down. The idea here is to bring them down "most the way" and then you can use a small screwdriver to push them down one at a time to slide it out.

2) The numbers on the pins are to distinguish between pin heights.

3) The reason you may have a pin or two that does not match is because you did not end up with the exact pin numbers you needed for that key. However, as you saw in the video you can either grind them down if desired, or leave them out all together.
