Default Lost keys

OK, let's step up the technical content here!

I misplaced my second set of keys years ago, had one set left. My new wool slacks (Joseph Abboud) the first or second day I wore them, developed a hole in the pocket and my only 356 keys have gone missing through a hole. Yes, I should not have carried them around, but with two kids the risk of loss may be higher leaving them in the house.

Worrying about this potential result, I recently bought a new ignition switch (which I needed) and matching door locks. Got the ignition in (it doesn't work yet, need electrical trouble shooting) but not the door locks. Have lots of keys for the new locks.

So how do I unlock the car and get in to replace the door locks, now that I've lost my keys?

This is a serious test of Reutterwerks tech knowledge, anxiously awaiting your replies!

I think you're screwed. May need a dealer for this one.

Find the oldest locksmith in the area and hope he knows what to do? I wonder how even a dealer would react to this problem.
