    Call the dealership and see if they can do anything for you.

    Try going to a locksmith, they will be able to help you out! it should not cost to much if you go there and you should be able to get a new key from them aswell. good luck in finding your keys.. at least you didnt do somethign stupid and lock them in the trunk

    Heh, with newer cars, they usually have a key code where you tell a dealership the code and they can cut you a new one on the spot.

    Too bad old cars never had that convenience.

    I think your best bet is to get it cut at the dealership.

    I had one cut for my 1987 BMW from the dealership. It was much cheaper than hiring a locksmith (only $20).

    sounds pretty mysterious man..maybe with this key, we can find out the mysteries of VTECH!
    "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.”

    Does your starter have an anti-theft computer? I know all the newer (2000+) Chrysler Neons have computer chip keys. Friend of mine had his only key duplicated at a key shop, $5. He tried to start the engine, and the car engine stalled after about 4 seconds. He found out that a second key had to be made at the dealership, because the key has a computer chip in it that is read by a seperate ignition computer. $95 a key
