    Seems that everyone who wants a key to one of the 'laser cut' models gets told that their lock was changed. What a crock. They told me the same thing. I think you might be up the creek w/o a paddle. Maybe try to get a whole column, key, lock and all, from a salvage yard. I am unsure hou tough it would be to replace w/o the key, but I suspect it is easier. Or maybe just find the damn key. Good luck.
