Need a car key cut

    Someone once told me about a shop that can cut a spare car key. I think it was around the top of William St. or Thomas St. Can't remember where now or who told me, but if anyone knows can they let me know. I know it won't have the remote fob but it's just to have a spare.

    Also, does anyone know where I could get an exhaust welded? Have a small hole in it that needs patching up before I re-do my NCT.

    Its called ryans locksmiths on Williams st, they will cut most car keys, but drive in with the car and bring ID as they are quite strict on cutting keys/picking locks

    If the car has an immobilizer it may not be just a simple thing of going down to a locksmith to have a key cut. The new key may need need the transponder reprogramed by the main car dealer.

    Agree, I lost my car keys recently (the only set). I had to go into Lyons and bring in my vehicle registration cert with the chasis no. I got the key so i could open the car door. Then I had to get it towed to Lyons so they could programme the chip in the key. It would not start otherwise. Expensive mistake, but it would all depend on whether you have an immobilizer or not.

    There's a guy in the yard on Mulgrave street - across from the Fire Station. Can't remember his name, but he sorted out a problem for me re NCT and emissions a few years back.
