[DML] Re: Cutting Keys

["Bernie" <bmanderville@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had the same problem, you may have the newer Volvo blanks, they are
the same shape and length but they are not the same, they are mirror
images.  Your local Volvo dealer can order them for you though, and
they are epxensive.  To get the right key blank, you will have to find
a locksmith that has Taylor X29 or equivalent key blanks, your car
does not require two keys.  I went to 3 different locksmiths to find
the right blanks, as I did not have time to wait to get blanks from
the vendors.  You can also get key blanks from the vendors.

do it but they said "no" after a day of scratching their heads.

the short key blank is for model years before 1983 that needed 2 keys
for the car?
