# Keys

Ever wanted to share your car with some friends? It's now possible!

{% hint style="info" %}
Keys lets you lock COMPLETELY your vehicles, **even the trunk**.
{% endhint %}

## Get a key

By default, the plugin makes sur you got keys in your inventory on login. But you can disable this feature in the [configuration file](/vehicleplusplus/features/keys/configuration.md).

There's also a command to give keys `/key give <player> [silent]`.\
The `[silent]` parameter is optional, if set to `true`, the command will not send any message in the chat. It can comes up useful when you're making shop or NPCs that just gives you a key.

## Lock/unlock a vehicle

In order to modify a vehicle's lockstate, you need to be either:

* A member of the vehicle's garage
* One of the vehicle's co-owners

If you are, then a simple right-click with keys in hand lets you lock or unlock a vehicle.

## Add co-owners

The most useful feature is co-owners. It lets you give players the rights to unlock/lock a specific vehicle.

You can see the list of a vehicle's co-owners by just shift right-clicking on a vehicle with keys.\
From there, you can remove and add players to this list.
