Sorry, cant answer your question but I was hoping you could answer mine. How strong are the Efini keys as Im thinking of getting one as I have sofar managed to bend two keys beyond use in my door lock, and am now on my third

erm they dont last too long when miter minit get their power machinery on it :eek: lol but er seem pretty sturdy if i find the butchered one after chucking it into obscurity that is my room ;) i\'ll try bending it 
surely it\'s the same as er other keys thou??? anyway get a remote central locking thing maybe best plan? SO where did you get all yer keys bent or otherwise made up?

The car came with one key and I got another two made up for me and they are absolutely pathetic, though my lock is quite stiff. Hoping to get remote central locking fitted soon.

I dont think you will be able to get spare keys without the key identification numbers. On the scoob you would have had a red plastic tag withthe keys, this sort of thing contains the details of those keys.
Without that you need to either A)take the barrel out and take that to a good key shop or B)get new locks alround.

Unlikely, that is mostly just the key type, not the cuts taken out of the original blank.
