Talk to a locksmith and see if they can cut a key on site

or

Remove steering wheel and column switch assemblies exposing the screws that hold the lock cylinder in. Remove those exposing the tumbler switch.

Now you have to figure a slim tool to depress the column locking pawl. Tumbler switch won't come out unless it is depressed. Not easy, but it can be done

or

As above, but remove the entire steering column assembly. 4 alen head screws & one pinch bolt on shaft universal joint & take it to a locksmith

or

find a key that works
