Hi Tom
If you can get the number from the back of the lock there are people who can
CNC cut keys to the number. Or some one who has broken a few cars may be
able to lend you the right number key to duplicate. The CNC key thing is UK
based (may be available over there) but I would be willing to assist if
possible, in return for some assistance stateside. The only flaw I see is
that I may not have a lock to test the key in.
If you are interested contact me off line to make arrangements.
Graham.
