Think you may have a faulty ignition switch??
If your Discovery Series II key getting stuck in the key barrel intermittently, you often times just need a new barrel tumbler assembly.
However, the original equipment barrels are not only hard to find these days, but are quite expensive!
This retrofit barrel kit is a fairly simple installation and is a fraction of the cost on the genuine (if you can find one!).
Bonus! This kit requires NO key programming!
Kit comes with replacement barrel and two new spare keys.

The product and associated video on installation was fantastic. I would give it 5 stars, but I had to make adjustments for a different ignition switch that was side mounted. I would definitely recommend this product.

Worked exactly like they said it would, getting the screws out was a little tricky but was able to do it without damaging the steering column or plastics. I highly recommend these guys for all your vintage Land Rover needs

My ignition was giving me trouble - like sometimes the heat wouldn't turn on which in winter in Vermont is a problem! I saw this, bought, replaced and all set. Was not at all hard to install. Only challenge was getting the rubber grommet to stay in place -- or getting it in right, I'll take the blame. I still don't have it in but doesn't make a different in how it works! Not cheap but very high quality.

This ignition barrel was a prefect fit for my2004 Discovery 2 using the installation video provided online. Highly recommend it if your key is getting wonky.

I just picked up another DII and knew the ignition wasn’t working great but this replacement also fixed the “always on” stereo and clock light problems that were draining the battery, along with fixing the keyless locking since it always thought the key was in the ignition. Extremely easy swap and I don’t mind the different set of keys to start it now. Very happy with the purchase, shipping, and video instructions showing the procedure for the swap.
