I have a problem with my new door...

Hey guys,

I picked up a driver's side door off of a member here for my RS after I got into an accident. I didn't realize until after I installed it that the locks are different now What can be done to fix this problem? The door handle from my orignal door is damaged so I can't switch them out. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

remove lock cylinder, go to dealer, get key and door lock code, get new cylinder with tumblers, reassemble. that should be good to go.

You should probably be able to swap the old lock cylinder to the new door. I've done it before on motorcycles. As long as you have the correct key it's usually easy to do (do you have a matching key for the new/used door that you bought?).
