[FC] key barrel

[Paul Steinberg]

Just about every locksmith in the USA has the code books and the key cutters.  It isn't rocket science to make a replacement key from the number.  It is difficult if you don't have the number and the cylinder is in the car.  Paul in CT

  The IGN key (late model anyway) is a B10 and the trunk key is a B11.  Those 
  are readily available at your local hardware store in the USA.  Get a spare 
  set or two made from the current keys.

  OR, once you have the code number, call Claypool.  He has the code book and 
  the punch tool to make keys.

  When you get the lock cylinder out, there is a number stamped on the side of 
  the  barrel.  This is the key number and should be recorded, so if you need 
  a new key, it can be made from this number by a locksmith.  If you have lost 
  the keys to the vehicle, then you are out of luck unless you can find 
  someone that has a set of master keys for you to use.  I am very protective 
  of my set since they are no longer made and impossible to replace.  Paul in

    Note: you must press in with the paperclip with a little force, you are
    pressing on a button to release the cylinder.
