How do you fix trunk lock?

As in so many 300-serie cars, my trunk lock is trying to escape when I pull key out from it, it has come out totally yet, but you never know when it does that.
I'm starting to get bit tired of watching out for it (I keep it on place with one hand and use key with other), so now I'm curious how to fix that without replacing whole lock?

It needs a new pin, as thats all that holds it in.

Mine fell out the other day, just used a thin rubber O-ring and some vaseline to pop it in as it was a tight fit. Seems to be nice and solid now,
