We lose keys constantly. Slim jim the car and remove the drivers side door panel, remove the outer door handle. Take the handle assy. to a local automotive locksmith. they can cut the key from the door tumbler.

Well for the lock thing I am pretty sure there are lock smiths that have a key that is a soft metal, and the put it in the lock and give it a firm wiggle, and then it leaves the key's pattern on the soft metal key, then he cuts it out, and then makes another key off of that one, and wala.



Or you could just buy a lock set from mazdatrix, and to the "get a dint puller and rip it out". I don't think that is wise, because if a cop ever see's you in the car, I am pretty sure that will count as stollen!



And I wouldn't do anything other than part it out, and I would run a VIN check on it to, because unless the owner was some guy with no family, that no one knew and he got killed. I find it very funny that no one has claimed it, so I am thinking it got a little to hot for someone (stollen) and they decided to get rid of it.
