The Suzuki replacements are hard to find. Believe it or not, you may be able to find them at your local Suzuki dealer, if they have any old stock. I found a dealer down in Alabama (?) a few years ago that had a web site to sell parts. Google 'Suzuki Keys' and you may get lucky.
The replacements you find on EBAY are actually Mitsubishi replacement keys (a little longer than Suzuki) but they work if you don't mind the key sticking out a little farther.

Here are a set of the Mitsu keys I mentioned above. They will work, they are just a 1/4" longer than stock. Found on EBay

Any locksmith probably has the correct blank in stock or can easily order it. Beware of using Axxess (ie; Wal-Mart, Lowes, Home Depot)blanks as they are not spec and depend on an often out of synch computerized machine to cut them to work. A mis-cut key can damage the wafers and jam the lock.
