Default Looking 1985 Jalpa Key blanks for spares.

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for key blanks for a 1985 Jalpa. I need one for the ignition, doors and trunk. If any of you have any info for me, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you,
Surender.

Some of the other models (ie Countach) are interchangable with Fiat key blanks. ( the part you hold in your hand looks different but the area that goes into the lockset is the same.)

You may have to go to a locksmith to find a proper selection.

Good luck.

Fiat Keys, on the ignition key of my cars was even stamped "Fiat Torino", the key copy shop should have blanks.

I recommend a lock smith.

Fiat works as does Renault. I bought a Renault blank because it was a hair thicker and fit a little better in my tumbler. I got blanks from a couple places. Just bring a reference and you should have no trouble. They are not rare or exotic keys. The two places I used were super cheap.

If you're looking on egay, the door locks are from a Fiat X/19.

Or you could try these guys http://www.keys4classics.com/. They will cut you a replacement key from a photo. I've not used them for my Jalpa, but I have used them on a number of other cars and never had a problem.
