Default Replacement keys

I bought a ZT with 1 and a half keys !

i have one full key that starts the car etc, however the fob is in poor condition and inside the microswitch to open the central locking is broken/missing. The transponder chip is present and correct however

the other key is missing its blade and also has the same missing "door open" microswitch but again will lock the doors.

Whats the best way to get myself a fully working key? Local key cutters refuse to do a blade I supply but dont stock them themselves which is a bit of a catch 22, and if i can get a replacement circuit board for the fobs, how can you programme it to mate to the central locking?

Help!

Buy one of THESE then once you have it, swap the transponder into the casing so it will start the car.

Then post me the key with the original blade and the two faulty PCB, which I'll refurbish for you, post them back, you fit the other PCB to your new key and job done
