I have replaced mine . They are "tamper proof" but there is a way around it. It sucks but it works.. flat head screw driver and hammer on the screws and hit them to try make notches for the scredriver to bite.. once you break them loose its cake.

umm... what?
Car jacking are we?

If i remember correctly, you can also present the title at the dealership as proof of ownership. Im not 100% sure on if that still works. Similiar situation ( lost keys, no tampering tho ) happened to my dad, he went to the honda dealer with the title, and some other forms from there, and they ordered him up a new key.
