[Shotimes] Lost Ignition Key Replacement

[sho2go]

I had a similar problem when I recovered my stolen '90 in Tijuana, except
there was no ignition lock either.  My dealer sold me a new lock, with key,
for ~$45.  He then cut the key to fit the existing door locks; the key is
2-part, with the ignition part separate from the door lock part.  Better
than $100, anyway.
