> Thanks, everybody who has contacted me about the Vanagon keys.  I've gone through all I got, but I was able to get 12 more from a locksmith friend in England, and he thinks he may be able to get another box of 25.  Though these are not keys with the VW logo (I haven't been able to find a logo key for the Vanagon) they are a good looking key.  I'll get everybody's orders out ASAP, and try to do it the evening I get the original to duplicate.  I think I explained to everyone that these are steel, and there are very few places in the US that can cut a steel automotive key as it takes a special cutter.  That's why I sell them cut.  At car shows, I get a lot of people who have purchased reproduction keys for older VW's but can't get them cut.  The suppliers don't bother to tell the customers that fact.  You deserve to be informed, so I'm passing all this on.  Again, thanks for your support and trust in letting me handle your VW lock and key services.
