yes a locksmith will be able to make a key for your ignition switch, he should also be able to rekey it if you want.

To remove,, theres 2 screws on the bottom of the dash,,,just below the ign. switch.
Take those out, label all your wires, and the switch will be in your hands. Dont forget to disconnect the battery before beginning.
