take your car registration and pink slip too (or anything to verify you're the owner of the car) to the dealership service department... they'll pull out your key info and make you a brand new key for under $10.

they need:

-verification of ownership
-VIN

Good luck!

haha yeah, my coworker has an old '94 mazda 626... and her only copy of the key broke in her trunk keyhole somehow. She was about to spend $160 for a locksmith to make him a key. Luckily, I was goin to work and saw her in the parking lot fiddling w/ the trunk. She got a copy made for $6. Then, she took me out for lunch

Start keeping 2 sets on you. I've learned my lesson from losing keys.
