Hi Peirrick. Am I to assume the ignition switch is made by huf? If that's the case you can get some new keys cut by using the number on the switch. I havnt done this for a very long time so cant remember the process. I'm sure someone, maybe Mike Plant or John Meadows will pipe up in just a moment.
I did get my schmitt keys cut from just having the switch and no keys, a friend of mine who is a locksmith got them done so if you get stuck I can help but would need to have the switch.
Watch this space.

If the key number is shown on the switch, you can usually order a key using just the number.
For example, at :
Replacementkeys.co.uk
Vintagecarparts.co.uk

Remove the ignition switch from the dash and the unique number is stamped on the barrel. Two letters and three numbers that will make sense to the locksmiths that Dave has suggested. If not then Wynford Jones at MOC spares can supply Huf keys.

Hi Pierrick, I made some extra key blanks for our Sport. If they look like these (flat on the Back) and you want some let me know and I will send them to you.

I believe that going via microcar sources the key might retain the HUF profile on the fob end. That is nice, but a Frisky key looks appealing too. A generic replacement might be just like any other key. For that you might spend a little more, but I think its worth it.
I should get a load of keys cut as I have quite a few switches without keys, not least as I have repaired several from defective units. The joys of components that come apart.
