Vinyl covered GM key blanks.... I'm having a problem locating the round vinyl covered "GM" key blanks that open the rear hatch on late model F cars...Have had no problem getting the ignition key w/chip, but the rounded keys seem to have disappeared in my area. Been to 4 GM dealers and 2 or 3 locksmiths..All the dealers have are the straight metal uncovered keys--no vinyl covered. Anyone help? Just need 1 blank. Thanks. WJ

You dont have to be an *** either.
You are unique in getting the door/hatch key vinyl covered.
My original is plain metal too.
What year is your car?
Maybe they stopped making the vinyl covered hatch/door key.

Both my '99 and '02 SS cars came with Vinyl-covered round door-hatch keys, by the way, so don't think it's a "rare" thing to have them...Any help would be appreciated. Thanks again. WJ

I could, but thought it would be easier to just pick one up. It's only a $2 piece and to have my parts man special order it would be kinda picky. He's ***** out busy all day long... I'll find one when am out and about....Thanks for the help. WJ

WJ SOM SS - Yes both have GM embossed on the key. Its the same style GM has had on there keys for a while. My old 90 Corsica had the same vinyl covers. I could have sworn my ex gf's 99 T/A had the same.

I'm going to search on Ebay. Got a great deal on a factory remote awhile back over there....Maybe they've got some of the vinyl-clad round key blanks, also. WJ
