    Most true professional locksmiths apparently have them. I bought a bunch of key blanks and took them to a locksmith to get spares cut, and he got 'miffy' that I had assumed he wouldn't have them and brought my own.

    If you have an original key it will be stamped or molded onto the head. Otherwise, I've heard it's on the bottom of the main switch but haven't ever had one off to confirm.

    My local True Value Hardware store's locksmith did the trick.
