Default how do I open my trunk.

Ok heres the scenario. my father in law just got a car, now it didn't come with the key that locks the shift stick on park also is the same key that lock the inside trunk opener to prevents thief from opening the trunk from inside car. Everytime he needs to open the trunk he has to get out of the car and open it with his regular key. Is there a way that you can get that key, does the dealer have a master key or something just to unlock it so that the trunk can be open from inside the car for now on?
thanks in advance.

so the door key is different than the trunk key? if so, your locks have been changed before, and a dealership can't make you a key. if the locks were the same, you could write down your VIN and take it to the dealer

Honda can make you a key from the VIN! You need to prove ownership but I have had several keys made off of my VIN.

Wait I though the door key and the trunk lock key (located by the gas door opener - the thing he's talking about) was the same key? At least in my car it is.
