iceberg1234 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Anyone know what key blanks a Birkin built in 2003 would use? I want to make a second ignition and gas cap key but Dick Brink is out of blanks and the local locksmith is stumped. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitcat Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Let me know what you learn. I need a backup key and my local locksmith is also stumped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlumba81 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 My caterham has a rover gas cap if that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rzempel Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 FWIW, my 2001 Birkin ignition key/ignition switch is identical to the switch available at O'Reilly's Auto parts (Formerly Kragen's). None of the locksmith/key places I went to could source a blank, so I just bought a new $10 switch with two keys that were identical to the one I had. I know it's a bit expensive to do it that way, but I was very nervous not having a spare. My gas cap key was sourced to a riding lawn mower by the local key copying guy.

iceberg1234 Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 I couldn't get a cheap switch from O'Reillys as mine has a steering column lock. So I took the lock off and went back to the locksmith. The blank for the ignition is from an old Datsun (Ilco DA25-P) and the gas cap is from an older Honda (Ilco X252 HD108) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
