Default Valet anyone?

I only have a green key to my 90 VP, its the Valet key!
Anyone want me to park their car because that's all I can do with mine.

No Jag dealers near-by, remedy anyone?

Technically you can "very carefully" grind/turn the large end on the key down to a smaller diameter and you will have the smaller diameter black master ket that will fit the boot and cubby. If you look at a master TIBBE key you will see the difference. You might also get a new master key cut by a local locksmith. There are 3 cuts on the early keys (full, half and none)

For some reason I can't upload the TSB for the locks but it is 76-64 if you can find it on the internet.
