Hey all.. I was just wondering.. how much is it to get a copy of the VATS key for an 89 Camaro RS? I know the door key is just a simple copy.. but I have to go to the dealer to get a copy of the VATS key, if I am thinking correctly.

Just wondering if anyone has, and how much it set you back. Thanks!

 

I paid around $25 for the VATS key for my 89 Corvette, which is the same kind as your car. I went to a local lock place rather than the dealer.

 

this way save you about $12
here is the link to get key blanks and second tells you how to decode the resistor

or you could just wire in a resistor and just use a regular gm key with no chip.

 

Thank you guys!

At least now I have an idea of what to do. Probably just go with getting one made locally. $25 isn't that bad - considering.


Thanks again!

 

check your local hardware stores as well.
stores here cut them for 12-15 bucks. they have a techtronic machine to check your key vs the new one. pretty much the same thing as a locksmith, without the "corvette tax" added on.
good luck.
