Cutting a spare key

[FalcoColumbarius]

I agree with Mararmeisto: I went in, showed them the key; they said "what is that?" I said "Oh, it's a Mitsubishi key"; and he said "oh" and cut me a couple of keys. Sometimes I like to play with their minds and say "it's a very rare motor car manufacturer called Mitsubishi, have you heard of them?"

In Kamloops I just had two perfect matches cut at 'Western Lock & Key'. Um, $7.32 and 9 minutes. Canadian Tire (x2), Home Depot, and some keychain place in the mall all failed. Like said earlier, just go to a key/lock place, they are for sure worth the few extra cents.

can cut from your key # if necessary.

as in I could call them, tell them the number stamped on the key and they could cut me a key and mail it to me? my key is really worn and starting to need a little jiggle to get turned in the ignition so that would probably give me a better quality cut.

be warned that the lock cylinder wears too, not just the key, I've seen times where a brand new "correct" key is actually WORSE than the worn one, simply because the worn one wore out in the same way the cylinder did...

I'm not saying it's not worth a try, I'm just saying it's something to keep in mind...

My key has a letter and 4 digits. With that # the guy said he could have cut the key.

My spare has these impressions on it: "ilco" "X121" "DC3". I got it cut at Trygg. These impressions were on the key before I walked into the shop so you will still need to bring your key in with you. If your key is "jiggly worn" then I would suggest you try it out before driving away... smiles.
