well, a lock smith would be a good idea, especiallyif you have AAA, otherwise make one piece of the key into an electromagnet and then pull the other end out. Hopefully it's loose enough to slide out easily.

id call a locksmith, make sure u dont get screwed on price though. i doubt youll be able to pull the key out with a magnet u can give it a shot though.

drill a small hole in it, put some jb weld on the end of a paper clip and slip it in and let it sit, then pull out.

Thats something I'd only trust myself or a machinist to do something like that.

I would only suggest this if you have insanely steady hands. It can be done, but if you miss the hole...

Crazy glue on the tip of a paperclip- even if you can only get it out a little, it will be enough to use something else like tweezers.

use two of your mommies bobby pins. straighten htem out then put a little 90 deg bend about 1/32 and inch back. use them like chopsticks. I know this works. Lets not get into HOW I know it works....

I am curious, how did the metal of the key break off exactly so you cannot pull it out of the ignition?

I could understand breaking off the plastic chip piece of the key, but there is still metal embedded inside it, and that would be enough to get a grip to pull it out...
