New PASS-KEY Key?

I just bought a 89 RS and it came with 1 key. How do I get another one, dealer?

But the dealer could definitely do it if all else fails, right?

Re: New PASS-KEY Key?

ebay, do a search for 89 camaro VATS key

they have the tables that tell you what code your vats is, all you need is a multi meter to check the key out its super easy. the key is about 2/3 less than gm and you dont have to pay them $20 to stick your key in a machine that tell the code on the key i have gotten 2 extra sets of keys (door and ing) on ebay and they are original GM keys to

when they arrive take them to your local hardware store to get them cut

i think i paid 20 for 1 ing and 1 door key (black plastic head GM) shipped to me

but as tom said the are around $40 at the stealership and they also want to charge to read the key code

i dont know about you tom, but my local locksmiths wanted to rape me on the keys and im not sure they were GM parts
