Replacing A Lost Car Key

Malpaisian · 2015-06-15 07:25:12

I have lost the only key I had to my car. Can anyone recommend a company that can provide me with a replacement. Preferably someone who has been in the same position and has actually had dealings with the company.

Things like car type and location would help here.

Not a DIY effort. Moved to main forum.

Depending on the make and model, most likely the car manufacturer.
You will need the log book, proof of ownership and relevant I.D.

I used a crowd called lock doctor. I'm in Dublin and they were in Limerick but courier covered that.
I had to remove the ignition (easy in a merc) and post it down to them, 2 days later I received my ignition back with 2 brand new keys. I think it was about 250 including the cost of courier.

I've heard good things about autokey.ie too.
