Default car key coin battery

hello,

i've lost my main key and need to use the spare for the time being, however the battery seems to be dead

reason im posting this on pwrx is because i've called every single auto and battery store in perth that is open today and none of them stock it.

battery number is CR1616, if anyone has a spare or one that i could borrow even would be a lifesaver, have to be in midland at 730 tomorrow morning

edit*

key is broken not battery

I just got a spare key made up as I only had one. I got it done at Cobbler Plus in Joondalup Mall. It's a kiosk in the sort of main atrium area. They will probably be able to repair yours. Getting my spare key made up cost $189.00.

Try Diamond Locks on Main St Ozzy Pk first, they do just about everything like that and are generally pretty cheap.
