    doubt you can without the original

    if you have no keys left then you're probably looking at a set of new locks

    You only had one key then? Oopsie!

    Your best option is probablyto go to a scrappy and get the ignition lock, lock barrels and keys from a wreck.

    Speak to a locksmith. They may be able to get the key pattern from a code on the door lock.

  • When you do get a new set - do what my family does:

    Have 3 keys for it.

    1. The main one you use every day
    2. A spare incase you lock yours inside and have to get your OH/Friend to bring it to you
    3. Another spare - incase you lose one - you can use this or get another cut.
