Not sure if I'm in the right section but here it goes.
Truck was stolen the other day and it had my boat keys in the glove box, v drive and engine drain plugs in the tool box.
How should I go about getting new keys? Can a dealer cut me a set? Do I just buy an ignition cylinder, if so where?
Also where can I get the v drive and engine drain plugs from?

Just buy a new ignition key switch. Easy swap out.

I have a new ignition with keys I purchased for my last boat. 2003 Supra with same engine. I found my keys but had already purchased it. If you want it your welcome to it. I’ll take a picture of it and post it tomorrow. I’m sure it could ship for $5-$10.

That Sucks!! I HATE thieves!!

I do the same thing though, I keep alot of boat stuff in my truck, now you have me rethinking that.

I thought the keys were all the same? If I remember correctly when I dropped my boat off for winterizing the dealer told me they didn't need my keys that they are all the same and they have plenty.

This is the way to go. These things don't last forever. Very kind offer.

I don't remember what the v-drive plug is but the block is 1/4 NPT, v drive 1/8 NPT maybe?

V-drive and engine block drain plugs are 1/4" NPT.

Aw man, I just saw this. I had already purchased one from my dealer. It looks different than yours hopefully I got the correct one from my dealer.

I emailed Walter marine for the v drive plug size and they told me 1/4 too. When I went to the local home depot it looked too big. Thanks for the 1/8 size I'll buy both just in case.

I was just going to get mine from home depot but after looking at this site, I am wondering if I should be concerned about the specs it gives for the max pressure..? 3900psi @ 72 degrees F...
Should I be worried about these numbers if I were to just purchase from home depot?

Don’t worry, the Home Depot plugs will do just fine. The cooling system is low pressure

Awesome, thank you! With any luck I'll have my boat ready to go by the time I get another truck (last truck was stolen)

Did you get your new max yet?? Looks bad A!
