Default Replacement Crossfire Key UK

Dear all, please help.

I have lost my one and only Crossfire Key and am now unable to drive my car (actually my wife lost the key - soon to ex-wife unless I can get hold of a new key).

I have been trying to obtain a new key without any success.

I have contacted 'Remote Locks and Keys' in the US as they were recommended on the forum, but they are asking for actual mileage to be supplied by a photograph of the dashboard.

Of course I am struggling to do this as I dont have a key !!! I can arrange for locksmith to gain entry into the car, but I dont know if the mileage will show on the dash once the door is opened (can someone please advise).

Any other help or advise you can offer would be fantastic, as I have only had the car since Christmas and have loved driving it in the short time I have had it.

Please help to save my santity and possibly my marrage !!!!

Thanks,
Wayne,

Zombie thread resurrection right there

I'm in Ireland and I lost my only key a few weeks ago. I contacted Rob over at Needswings.com and he got me a new key direct from the Chrysler factory in the U.S. for $320 / €288 / £243. Express shipping was an extra $67 / €60 / £51, regular shipping is somewhere in the region of $40. Great guy to deal with and much cheaper than expected!

The non-U.S. version of the key wasn't available on the website at the time, but I emailed him and he sorted it out for me.
