Do you mean the ign switch lock barrel with the key or do you mean the electrical ign/start switch?

if you want one key then go to a locksmith and they can key the new cylinder to match your door key.

should be around 40 bucks or so.

the hole is on the bottom of the column and accessed through the plastic below the key.
