Is it a universal key? If so, you can buy them on Amazon. If not, sorry, no idea.

You do not say that it is an ignition key which is what most people have assumed it is. I usually like to have a spare unused key so that if I loose a key, I have the replacement cut from a new key rather than a used one.

Someone suggested buying a blank. If, a place has blanks in stock surely they have the machine to cut the blank. They are not supposed to sell a blank to anyone who is not a licensed locksmith, the reason is with the blank and a little skill you can make a key.
It is called smoking the blank or something like that.

If, you are looking for a glove box key. Frankly, I tried both Lowes and Home depo and they did not have the blank.

Due to your post, it has moved up from my forgot to do it to my really should do it list.

Anyone know of a smart ignition so I could use my smart phone to lock/unlock and start it?

Unless you have had "Uncommon" key installed in your cart it probably uses a universal key. Most cart manufacturers install a Universal key switch because they are cheaper and the golf courses don't want to mess with a fifty different keys for their carts.

Go on Amazon and order a few for $5.
