Hey little man, why tell them its swapped? Just tell them you lost your old keys so you got a new ignition set up./ I don't know what's involved with the whole process, but if you need it done and they don't need all the details that's what I would do

I wouldnt even say you got a new ignition installed. Why not just say you have a 07 wrx?

Could you bring the key blank and the ignition with you to the locksmith? Or would they think its stolen or something (even tho im not sure what a stolen ignition would do for you out of the car haha)

Or do they have to come out to you to do it?

I am! I can't wait for it to be done only things left to finish are small things.

Well, two small things and 1 big thing.

Power locks, AC line needs to be made, and the most important thing, a key.

Other than that the car is pretty much done, took about a week to get it to this point.
