Re:Re:Re:Is this the correct front grill for a 2020 SZ5?

Thanks Saxj, all good to know about TJM snorkels. With all of the rain we have had recently dust isn't a problem and as I live of a big hill the chances of flooding are remote.

The original owner was a lady, so it looks like it was for styling rather than anything else. Still I am not bothered and I can't see myself testing the wading depth anytime soon.

James, Martin, the key for my cover is not there, but I managed to compress the cover and spring it off. The lock is stamped autotech.de so I think it is an after market. I have asked them if I can get key, lock barrel or a whole new hasp, but if I can't I can get a generic replacement hasp which looks like it will fit, or go back to compressing it to get it off.

On a similar subject, the Suzuki gen4 soft spare wheel covers are quite disappointing - they are elasticated and don't have the crucial drain hole that the gen3 velcro-attached covers did.  Eventually you get a saggy bag of water and a mouldy tyre.

Thanks Martin, good to know it’s genuine Suzuki. I suspect my Jimny was a ‘pavement princess’ in its former life, but we will get that corrected.

I don’t hold out too much hope in getting a key but screwfix and Toolstation both sell cam locks that should fit, so will get a replacement lock for not much money next week and swap it over.

Roger, a fair amount of water drained out of the cover when I opened and closed the back door today, so you are probably right, the spare is probably a soggy mess already.

Very similar short lock barrels are fitted to boat doors and boat glove boxes

I took the lock off, measured it, went to Toolstation and the one I bought was a little long, so I was just trying to decide if I should modify it or take it back and change it when I thought I would try the new key in the old lock and it went in and unlocked the old barrel.

I bought a random key, it’s a little tight to get in, but locks and unlocks without problem. Good for me but slightly worrying that an off the shelf key works.
