Hello,

I have a car key that needs to be mill to the correct groove before taking it to the lock smith to have it cut. Anyone interested doing this? if you can do it, i'll place a large order(30-50 keys).

First picture shows the original key and second picture shows the key after it's being milled.

let me know

I doubt anyone here is going to cut those keys for you!

I would say that no one here will cut those keys for you. From my perspective it appears to me as though you may use those keys to steal cars and finish grind them yourself to do so. From a moral and ethical stand point I know I would never cut those keys for you and I doubt any other legitimate machine shop would either. Good luck though. I am sure you will find a shop somewhere to cut them.

There are people out there have done this job before. I am just surprise that it can't be done here. Lock smith does not mill keys, they only cut them to fit individual car or door.

here is another view of the key

Sure, I can mill those keys, but only if you can demonstrate that it is a completely legal and ethic bussiness.

Thats personally what I would guess. The price to have a new key made/cut by the dealer can range from $100 to $600 and in some cases take 6-8 weeks to arrive from overseas.

There are also way easier ways to steal a car then trying to cut a key for it, although I wish more thieves would use keys ..... would have saved me from replacing the whole steering column in my truck.

Yes, this is legal. These key are for newer model cars, which has remote and key in one peice. I went to the dealer and they said they can cut the keys only if the keys are mill to the correct size and grooves.

I can run them for $10 to $15 dollars a key. Depending on if it has groves one or two sides. If you had a print or a sample part I could let you know more. If you would like me to just run one and send it to you as a sample that would be fine to I would not charge you anything extra.. And you pay shipping.

Please email me and let me know
Thanks jay
