Key blanks
« on: November 04, 2012 - 12:33:43 PM »
Torred's posting got me to thinking about getting that second key set cut. I wanted to get original mopar key blanks. I think somebody here used to sell them. Anybody remember who?  :clueless:

You can find them on eBay pretty cheap (<$10) for a set

Ya, I saw a set there and will go that route if brooks doesn't reply before too long. Just wanted to give my business to a member if possible.

read the following link....then read reply #4      http://www.cuda-challenger.com/cc/index.php?topic=54100.msg559764#msg559764

I was happy, happy, happy.
had them cut at ACO hardware store and they worked like a charm.  Plus HP2 is a member....although this was 3 years ago.
good luck....hope this helps.

I had two sets sitting around to eventually cut for my road runner-got them from Year One although I`m sure you can get them cheaper.I think I bought them with a bunch of other stuff using a 20% discount.

There's a guy here in Puerto Rico that has a whole box of them. He picked them up when a dealership closed in the80s and he only uses them on classics. If you have a k car you just get the blank without  the pentastar

Good thing. Looks like I'm all out of ignition blanks. I did find a few trunk blanks.
