What are you opening?

Hyundai and Kia changed keyways across model years. Match yours on the vehicle list, then pick the profile it names.
Car locks change between trims, model years and markets, and one make can run two keyways in the same year. We match each profile to the cars it's built for, but small differences between locks mean we can't promise a fit on every car. Check your model and year on the vehicle list before you order. Our returns cover unused tools in their original packaging, so a Lishi that has been tried in a lock counts as used and can't come back.

Picking feedback and decoding in one tool
The old way meant separate tension, curtain handling, wafer picking and key-reading work. A Lishi 2-in-1 gives you a guided picking surface and a decoder scale in the same tool body.
Find your car, then let the tool guide you
Each Lishi is cut for one key profile, which is why the codes look so cryptic. Nobody remembers them, and you don't need to. Search your car and we'll do the matching. Working on a house lock or padlock instead? Those have their own Lishi picks for Schlage, Kwikset and American Lock.
Once it's in your hand, the job is direct. Insert the tool, apply controlled tension, test the numbered positions and lift the binding wafers. When the lock turns, read each wafer off the decoder scale.
Start with your car's make
Tap your make to see every profile for it, the cars each one covers, and whether it works the door and trunk or the ignition too.
Ford, Chevrolet, GMC, Buick, Cadillac, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mazda, Volkswagen, Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Volvo and Land Rover.
Many makes use more than one profile across their model years. If you look after a whole brand, you can add every profile we have for it to your cart in one tap from that list. Everything else is on our full list of cars and Lishi picks.

Questions buyers usually ask
Which Lishi 2-in-1 should I buy?
Search your make and model at the top of this page and we'll show you the Lishi that fits. Model years overlap, so check the profile against your key blade. Still not sure? Email a photo of your key to hello@lockpickworld.com and we'll tell you which one fits.
What if my car's make uses several profiles?
Many do, because key blades changed across the model years. Buy the one that matches your key. If you work on the whole brand, tap your make above and you can add every profile we have for it in one go.
Will one Lishi open every car?
Each tool is cut for one profile, which is why locksmiths build up a set over time, starting with the cars they see most.
Does it make a working car key?
It decodes the mechanical lock, so you can cut a key that turns it. Modern vehicles may still need transponder, immobilizer or programming work before they'll start.
Are these genuine Lishi tools?
Yes. Every Lishi we sell is genuine and carries the Mr. Li silhouette logo.
