Lost key have new Ignition but wont start

So I lost the keys to our 2004 Auto and I have a 2004 Manual parts car.

I removed the ignition then took the ignition from the parts car and put that in.
Everything works besides the fact that it wont start and the theft light blinks.

I have tried it with both of the cars key code readers but they both do the same thing.

Is there anyway to get this to work or do I have to have the dealer make me some keys?
