I'm looking for anyone who may have converted a fox body to a SINGLE KEY set up. One key that works for ignition and all other doors, trunks, hatches, glove boxes.

if so, Please advise me as to how you did this?

Thanks

I've know plenty of people who have.
You need to change all your lock cylinders to one key.
Your local locksmith is a good place to start.
Cheaper if you change your doors, truck/hatch key to your ignition one, vs changing 3.

The ssp mustang (cop cars and other government issued mustangs) all came with just one key. If you check around someone might sell that kit

Newer ones may have but mine unfortunately came with 3 keys.

I've seen kits online, but they're crazy expensive, the last i remember seeing was in the $450 range (seriously). I've thought about having the doors and trunk locks keyed for an ignition key at a locksmith...just haven't looked into it yet.

Yeah, the SSP single key kits are very expensive. I think they started that in 1987 though.

junkyard solution, maybe? If you're lucky enough to find an SSP in the JY.
