Default PLEASE HELP ME! door locks

I got held up at gunpoint about an hour ago, they got everything and my car keys. I need to change my door locks tommorow on an 01 pt cruiser. No idea where to get them/how/how much. Any information fast would be more than appreciated!

Not very good info, I'm afraid, but for my 2008, the dealership said $225 per key and they would just reprogram the whole setup to not accept the old keys anymore.---but that's probably the highest price you'd find.

Edit: You are ok, though, right?

A locksmith should be able to help as well. He should be able to change out the locks on the doors, hatch and ignition. Not sure on the 01's but my 03 has a chipped key. If the 01 has that As well some of the better locksmiths can program the key as well.

I am ok, thanks for asking. But i was thinking of just changing the actual door locks and the hatch lock. Unless its a whole setup or its not much more for the ignition than idk.
Edit: I think im missunderstanding how this works. Dont the door locks just need the tumblers to fall? Or do the door locks as well as the ignition need the chip in the key to work?

You are correct, the hatch and door locks do not have any electronic connection just the lock cylinders.
Did you have the keyless entry fob stolen as well? If so, that would still work for whoever got your keys.
