While turning into a parking space I felt a tug on my hand. My finger snagged my key chain and mortally bent the key. Being the only key I have I'm down to starting my car with a pair of pliers.
Who can re-cut 914 keys? I tried once locally an no one would do it. Attached image(s)

You may be able to dig out the broken part with two sharp picks. Any locksmith should be able to cut a key. Call around locally. Its a common VW blank.Curt can do it too. Do you have a spare to copy? If not pull the rear trunk lock and have a key made to it. Much easier than pulling the ignition lock.
@spoke Make at least two keys. |
