Are blank Triumph Keys available??

I got some from ebay not long ago labelled for Stag but the same blank, £4 each. They are not OE pattern with the black plastic bit on the non business end but they do the job.

Best to source in person if you can as there are several profiles. Most long established locksmiths will have some old stock.

Great thanks - did Dolomites of that age have the black plastic on the key?

I too bought some from Ebay and then found my branch of Timpsons (Tescos) shoe/key cutters had blanks hanging up.

No at least mine never did and it has original keys. Mine's a 77 model and keys have no plastic and a stamped Leyland logo.

That's what my one is like, 1980, but I only have the one so wondered if the 2nd set may have had it.

I got mine from my local locksmith.

They are Silca UNI 19, this bloke seems to confirm they are correct.

He is in Australia but there is the JMA equivalent here

Looks like they are the same as the MGB so should be reasonably easy to get.

Mine are actually slightly different to the original that I have, there is a ridge at the top of the original.

Works fine though.
