Take VIN to the dealer. They should be able to get you a key.

You may have to show "proof" of ownership --- take your title or call them first.

Won't even fit in the lock, at least on mine.
And yes, a couple of trips to the dealer with proof of ownership.

If you want the round key replaced you should make it clear to the parts person - I think the assumption is that you would want a master key rather than the valet key.

I was never asked which of those I wanted - just got the master for 2 different cars. That's what I wanted though, so no problem.....
