the cheapest thing to do is to call up the dealer and have them get you the key. if you put in a new one you will have to have it reprogrammed anyways before it will start.

to replace you should see a hole on the ignition tumbler, simply drill it out about 1/8th of an inch and the tumbler should pull right out.
