No key nightmare !

Can anyone suggest what to do please.
Just got home to Yorkshire by train. Re-United with my 2001 986 tiptronic 2.7 and the biggest nightmare.****
I only have one key which came with the s/h replacement black box M534 I bought following water damage.

now the key has disappeared . Leaving me with a beautiful metal paperweight sat on my drive.
I would****appreciate any ideas on what to do .

does anyone know if it is possible to send the M534 black box to someone like Revolution Porsche Or even a stealership , buy****new key fobs and would they be able to programme the new keys to the black box. OR would it need to be the whole car sent?****
help please****
I am at my wits end .

I'm thinking you're going to have to source an entire setup (used) and to include a couple of keys... being certain they come with the programming serial numbers.

You;re then going to have to flatbed the car to your dealer for their surgery.

Unless you have an indie who can do all that.

I stand corrected. Good luck.
