Just take it to a locksmith and they'll be able to fix it.

Favors I'll check the manual now and figure out how to do it j/k

i've pulled that piece out a few times and if you want to remove it to swap the whole thing, pretty much the entire rear section needs to come apart. Quite a time consuming task...

U have to remove the lock cylinder and bring it to the dealer or a locksmith. He can have it match ur key. I had mine done at the dealer thru a friend who no longer works there.
