An uncut key is a foundational component for creating a new duplicate or replacement key for your vehicle. Unlike a finished key, this product comes with a blank metal blade that has not yet been cut to match your car's lock cylinder. It may also include a plastic housing designed to hold a transponder chip, which is required for starting the engine in most modern vehicles. To become fully functional, the key must be taken to a professional locksmith or dealership for precision cutting and, if applicable, electronic programming. This is an ideal solution for replacing a lost key, creating a spare, or repairing a damaged key blade while keeping your existing key fob electronics.
