Broken key help !

Hi,

My unlock button on my key is broken on the key and can only unlock the mini manually. Does anyone know places where the key can be repaired for a fair price.

Thanks

With a key that's been snapped off while fully inserted into a lock and if there is a portion of the key sticking protruding from the lock, it may be best to try to twist or remove the key with pliers.
