Yea.. I got a new key from the dealer..it was cheap...<BR>I think labour at CrappyTire is like $70 an hour though...there's gotta be a way to get it out.

A really strong magnet might do the trick....finding one is the hardest part [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]

uhhhhh that wont work":P the whole lock assembly is metal, you'll just magnetize it and make the key stuck worse":P just take apart your door and dink around with it, i have no idea how to do that but its worth a try, im thinking of switch my locks around since my passenger side lock is like brand new since its never been used.
