Re: Please everyone read this!

go to ebay.com search for the vehicle and year, and try and find blanks, have them shipped. go to a mitsu or a chrystler dealer and givem your vin # make sure to have the pink slip and ID because usually they wont do it with out that.

Re: Please everyone read this!

i think the dealer is filling you full of shit or they're just too damn lazy to do it...EVERY dealership i've ever dealt with has been able to cut a key for any half-ass recent car. granted it may be 15 years old...but they should still be able to do it.

Re: Please everyone read this!

hmm i lock my self out of my car all the time, get a ""slim-jim""... heres what you do, you call up your local cop station tell the officer you locked yourself out of your car and they got "slim jims" to pick locks even power window locks. or do what i do get a coat hanger put a hook on it and slide it down, then pull towards your front bumper it always works for me.

Re: Please everyone read this!

Guy, I work at a locksmith shop. I can tell you that the key you're looking for in a MIT-1. That "aftermarket" ebay key is funny. We stock that thing all day long. Maybe if you went and bought a MIT-1 from Wal-Mart and took it to a locksmith they could help you out. Or if you took it to the dealership. See if there's a Furlong's in your area, that's where I work, and the locksmiths charge $50 to do what you're asking. Hope it helps.

Re: Please everyone read this!

Will the dealer give you the key code? If so take it to most good locksmiths and they can cut it. I have done this with many salvage cars in the past. Dealers are bad at making keys.
Goodluck
