You'll find that the key goes into a keyhole hidden in the Chrome "XK8" badge on the rear panel. Between the k and the 8 if I recall.
Unlock the driver's door using the BLACK key (not the green one).
You have to use the key and the keyhole is located on the back between the X and K.
thr key fits in the 8 of the xk8 emblem in the passenger side rear.
