The key code is stamped into a hidden spot on the front door handles. It
is a 2 minute job to pull a door handle. Then take that handle to a
locksmith and they look up the code and cut a key to match it. I have
had this done many times at a locksmith shop in Oceanside. If you are
near to me I can help you do this or by phone if you prefer.
