Like many on here I have had the issue with my VATS not allowing me to start my car and almost left me stranded. So as I found the resistance of the OEM key and spliced that into the wire under the dash to bypass the key in the ignition cylinder.

That being said, I only have 1 key to the car and would like another. Has anyone had a new key cut from a generic store? I don't see why this wouldn't work if the resistor in the key is already bypassed...

 

It works. Enjoy $1.29 keys.

 

It would work but keep in mind that the vats keys are a bit longer. Personally I buy blanks on eBay and then have them cut. Cheap and easy

 

i need to end up getting a spare key , i did the vats bypass also , cheap keys here we come .

 

Good to know. I will be following suit. Lol.

 

You can buy the factory style key blanks on ebay and then just get them cut. That is what I always do.
