Lost my ignition key to my 88 and 89 festiva

What can I do please.

Remove your passenger side door lock cylinder. It has a key code on it that any reputable locksmith can use to make a key.

That is really good news, thank you. I don't know how I'm going to get those locks out but I will get it done. Thanks again.

I'm in a rural area and the junk yards have none.

I think he is refering to Skimsucka, another member here.... they aren't far away from each other? so they've tried their keys in his ignition... correct me if I'm wrong?

Remove the door panel, peel back the plastic shield. Then remove the rod from the lock cylinder, then pry the retaining clip off the lock cylinder. Then it should slide out.

You might try a knife blade, GENTLY! A small pocket knife blade would open my first 88's drivers door, and the second 88's drivers door, hatch and gas lid. Second one had more miles.

If you are locked out, find a festy key or one that is the same size, and make a bump key.

It's the ignition, thanks.

How does a bump key work by the way?

Ive taken the tumblers out of quite a few over the years that I bought without keys and the passenger door was changed. I wouldn't recommend it though Unless it's your only option. The nice part is any key that fits, works. The bad is everyone on here has a key for your car.
