Hit up aliga if you need parts like that. He might have it.

Question though, if you do this, wouldn't you techinically have to change out EVERY lock on the car?

you can get your ecu reflashed for between 150-400 dollars. some locksmith have the tool for this. This will help you avoid having to change all your locks and even give you more than one master key for future purposes.
good luck.

its been done amillion times. I can attest to thatcause i was in the same situation.
the locksmith wipes off every key programmed to your and then reprogrammes a cut key to the system. that way,you don't have to change any locks as the cut key is cut for your car and locks.
good luck
