Does anyone have this kind of key? I need a second key cut, and don't know where to get the blanks. Thanks

Is it a standard Minor lock or a modification? Can you post a photo of the key?

Orion looks like an aftermarket copy of the original keys. Do you have the number for the key ? It looks like it would be FS*** The key number could be on the heritage certificate if you have one ? A blank from ESM is probably what you need. https://www.morrisminorspares.com/body- ... nk-p828279

Agreed, that's a standard Minor key. If you know the number then it is often possible to buy the key already cut, not have to worry about a blank. Depending on the year of your car, the three digit number may be stamped on the face of the lock, or, as Philip says, look at the Heritage Certificate that will list it (assuming that the locks have not been changed over the years).

I checked and there was only 1 set of keys with previous owner. I was surprised he never felt uncomfortable with only 1 set. I found the blanks as suggested on EMS. Thanks everyone!
