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.

Do you only have the one key?

There is nothing special about 914 keys, any competent lock shop should be able to cut them. Lock shop near me actually carries the proper black plastic head Porsche keys as well as the valet profile keys. Not sure if that is just because I am lucky or because I have had then cut so many of my own I brought in that they decided to stock them.

That said if you don't have a competent locksmith near you @TheCabinetmaker Curt should be able to sort you out. Anything beyond cutting a key or re-wafering a single tumbler or two we sent to Curt.

Get multiples made, then you wont have to do this again.
