wildmaninid Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 I am in need of 2 key blanks for my 620, one longer one for the door and a shorter one for the key. I don't have any reference to any numbers, and I don't really care if they are factory or not, it's just no one here has any that work and I need to get my wife a set for the truck. I can pay by Money Order (i don't do business with paypal anymore) Bill Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Bill, I can grab you some blanks from one of the lock smiths in town. Link to comment
wildmaninid Posted August 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 That would be awesome. Do you have an idea of the right ones I need? I would gladly reward you somehow. Link to comment
wildmaninid Posted August 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 I can't do blowies since I live so far away now, so we will have to stick to dolla bills...... Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 lolz, ive got the blowies covered (just ask phil :rofl: ) I DD a 620 so i should just be able to have them pick out blanks based on those. PM me Link to comment
datsunaholic Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 The blanks depend on what direction the grooves are. There are several blanks. 620s didn't use long keys ever, BTW. But that's the only size blanks you can find generally. All my replacement keys are long. They work. Usually the blanks are DA22 (62DT) and DA24 (62DU), but there are wider-groove keys too (DA25, which is a wide-groove DA22). Because your ignition has been changed, God knows what you have. This site shows pics of the blanks, and you can see the opposite grooves: http://mysecuritypro...ukeyblanks.aspx (62DU) http://mysecuritypro.com/nissan62dtkeyblanks.aspx (62 DT) Oh, and the site lists the cross-reference blank numbers too. 620s changed from one blank to the other sometime between the '74 model year (62DT, which is what my '74 620 and my '72 510 use) and '76, which uses the 62DU. I don't have a '75 to be sure which it used. Link to comment
wildmaninid Posted August 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Aha, Well i DO have a 62dux7 key for my door ( checked and saw the partially rubbed off numbers) it is obviously a repro key My Ignition key is stubbier, has a more modern nissan logo (the hamburger, not the giant N) and the only numbers on it are 5001, which I assume is a key code for the ignition switch? I went to the local Nissan dealer and they looked at me sideways........ Link to comment

wildmaninid Posted August 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Top door Bottom iggy Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 sweet, ill see what i can grab for you Link to comment
datsunaholic Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Should be able to use the 62DU (X7) blank for both. The bottom key is a replacement ignition key, mid-80s I'd guess. Your original door key would have been the same stubby, but I haven't seen stubby blanks ever except ones with plastic heads. If you really want the stubby key, a REAL locksmith (not the kids at Home Despot) can cut the blank short before cutting the teeth. It's not that hard, just takes time. Link to comment
flyerdan Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Had a bitch of a time with the camera, kept shutting off. Figured I'd pull out some blanks and get a pic of the different types, as least the ones I have in my assortment. Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 lolz, home depot around here doesn't even have the right blanks :P Link to comment
wildmaninid Posted August 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Yeah same here. I have been to 5 hardware stores (2 old ones that I was sure would have old hordes of keys) 2 car dealers, 2 home depot's and a lowes. No one has a damn thing. Looks like a pair of DA21's will get me going. You guys are awesome. Link to comment

wildmaninid Posted September 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 I feel lucky! Lmk what's up on your end, I will make it right. Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 Wow, what a fucking PITA!!! Stopped by the locksmith and boss man was in and not my buddy. Apparently they won't sell blanks!!! Cus you can go "online and Find the info to cut it yourself" and since their name and # are on the keys they won take Liability. Fuckers I ended up grabbing them at a local hardware store thats been around forever, just an FYI. U owe Jim at the hardware store a blowie ;) On their way :) Link to comment
