Gary,

BTW, when you ask about an OE Huf key, you also need  to specify that 
you need a K profile key. Mark also points out that the OE  blanks you 
will find will be brass, even though the ones that came with  the car 
when new were steel. Both were chrome plated, so the only way to  tell 
the difference is to look at the cut edges or use a  magnet.
 
And IF you decide to get a steel key, make sure he can "cut it". I only  
mention this, as my local locksmith won't do steel keys (he's not set up for  
them). Note; you might have to send a lock assembly to make sure the steel 
key  will work. I ran into that last spring, when I used a VW key guy out of 
PA.  The steel key didn't work, but the brass one did. He was working off 
the key  code, when he made them. We're just using the brass one, and an 
original Huf  key for the door locks.
