I have an extra set, ig, gas cap, toolbox cylinder and helmet lock. All keyed alike but no key for it although I can get one made.
I was able to pick the gas cap, never did it before. Read about it long time ago, got a few tips from here. It was harded finding the tools to do it.
Get a flat wire, the wire in wiper blades is perfect. bend 1" over at 90°. stick that in the keyway away from the pins. Apply alittle twist in it to torque the cylinder in the direction that it opens in, CW. Take another wire, put a little bump in the wire so that it will push in only one wire at a time. Apply some twist, stick the wire with the bump in the keyway near the pins, rub back and forth until it opens.
If you buy a used cylinder with key get one from the same year. I think there's a different keyway in every year. Then take a look at the tech section, there's a thread on how to rekey the toolbox, all the cylinders are keyed the same way, but each cylinder is a little different. Not hard to figure out really.
