You can find them at some Ace Hardware stores, but they are nylon so 
they won't match the color of the originals. Unless the particular key 
has historical value, that shouldn't matter.

You'll have to find an Ace that isn't all yuppified trying to compete 
with big box stores. Find an old fashioned hardware store. I buy them 
all the time in our local Ace which we still call Bauman's even though 
it has been Ace for 30+ years. That's the kind of place you're looking for.
