Yes, you can get a used ignition lock tumbler from someone, or get a new one. Not sure how much installation would run you though. It'll require partial dissasembly of your steering column, so I'm sure it won't be dirt cheap.

it shouldnt be too difficult. Im sure you could tackle the job on your own, just some basic dissasembly and rewiring.
on a side note,, if somebody else has a copy of your key for your ignition, id install a kill switch asap.

yea i gues that makes sense. idk if im just too upset to think straight.... or what plus im all ****ed up emotionally cuz... well id rather not say. but anyway how do i do that.... cuz like i said. i just cant think at all right now. or even the last couple of days. the only reason i havent gone to the police station yet about the restraining order is b/c i cant make up my mind and my dads tellin me not 2.

Lexi, on the T/A I left a way to completely kill the car somewhere in the cabin. It would easily prevent anyone trying to turn it on.

You may want to change the door locks as well before your interior is filled up with the used condoms of him and his new girlfriend. not that I would know anything about that....
