    hi
    Had my car broken into and they took the key to my roof box which was left in my car.
    (yes I know I should not have left it there... and I only had the one).

    Anyway what are my options? I'm thinking have the lock replaced or try get a replacement key?

    any advice would be welcome
    thanks in advance
    Chris

    There may be a number on the key barrel ? I got one cut in locksmith before by quoting the key number.

    That's the place I originally recommended back then. If they are too far away then any reputable lock smith should be able to cut them.

    It is. And thanks again.
    I never spoke to them. It was all email and they posted the key out to me.

    thanks all.... success in the end!
    I phoned my local locksmith in Inchicore www.thelockhospital.com/contact.html
    Gave them the code on the barrel and they cut the key for €6

    Happy days.
    Thanks for your input
    Chris
