Mine was broken into a few months ago now. Bending the door back is simple and usually looks ok, but when they buggar the lock, a new door is probably your best option B)

It's scary how easy it is to do, I locked my keys in the 205 just before we were to set off to Amsterdam :( and had to bend the door back to get the keys out. D'OH!

 

I have a habit of opening boot then locking it before I take keys out and silly me left them on boot floor.

 

Now the window gets stuck when I try and unwind it :D

Ironic, I just came back inside from changing my locks and ignition barrel after someone screwed up my passenger lock trying to get in.

 

Leads me to another question, can you get a filler cap to suit a key or do you have to resign to the fact that you have to use 2 keys or change a complete set?

 

They are not like Fords are they where fillers only have about four different lock patterns?

I've locked my keys in a couple of times, There's an easy way of getting into a 205 without causing damage, won't post it on a forum though :ph34r:

i bought a full valeo lock set from ebay a couple of years ago and it had the skeleton fuel cap, ignition barrel, boot and door locks . i can't remember if it had the glove compartment lock.

the only things i can think of apart from replacing the door

1 de lock it so take out the lock and smooth it and buy a alarm that opens the doors

2 if thats not to your taste google solex locks or look on ebay these are a little bit bigger than the standard locks so MIGHT cover the damage
