Which key
Find yours before you ask
Which of the four you are holding decides the job and the price more than anything else about the car. Turn it over, press it, and take the answer to the form.
Which one is yours?
Turn it over, press the buttons, and pick the shape that matches the key in your hand. It is the answer that changes the job most.

Before you book
What to have ready
Two things decide whether the job can happen at all, and it saves everyone a trip to know them up front.
Proof the car is yours
Registration papers or a rego search in your name, plus photo ID matching it. Your locksmith checks this before cutting or coding anything. It is not negotiable and it is not bureaucracy — it is the same rule that stops somebody else asking us for a key to your car.
The make, model and year
The year matters as much as the model — the same badge can use a plain metal key one year and a proximity key the next, and they are different jobs with different prices. It is on your rego papers if you are not sure.
