Replace both ignition switches while you are at it Phil. They all eventually go bad and can create a momentary loss of ignition because of wear from the keys hanging with heavy key rings jerking on them over the years not to mention them getting wet and corroded.

Trust me the ignition switches are nothing special and easily bought off the shelf. Phuck the Cigarette keys and get some new ignition switches and eliminate a future problem on a old boat.For what it will cost for a locksmith you can replace them .

I don't know about all that. Phil is selling what is essentially entry level to the Cig crowd. Most of these guys love the idea of setting their keys with the Cigarette emblems down at the table. Kind of an ego stroke. A pair of ignitions with keys is $160 bucks from LipShip, and they will be matched when you get them. It is one of those finishing touches that people really appreciate.
