    Misplaced Red Valet Key - Now What

    I know you can purchase new valet (red) blanks but I believe you have to have the original red key to copy a new valet. What is the best way to get another copy without the original

    Question

    I think the valet key has the same profile with an extra cut in it to allow it to work the tumbler of the glovebox. It's been a while since I dealt with this though. A locksmith would make one if you have a red blank.

    The red valet key is cut the same but the blank is different to not permit the opening of the glove box.
