Long story short I misplaced the key for the vette. I have two uncut spares I procrastinated on getting cut.  
I live out in Amherst and am wondering where I should go for the least amount of hassle?

Quality VATS key. GM had better stock security in the cavalier those years.

Great service as always at Basil. :tup: to that. Everyone was super nice.

But LMAO at the $20 fee to “pay for the code from GM” Subaru and Honda both never invented a fee for a vin cut key.

I thought about tossing you a message but this was NBD.

I don’t think I stressed enough how nice and helpful everyone was. Usually when you walk in a dealership and ask for the Parts dept everyone just looks at you funny and points. I had a really enthusiastic younger guy walk be right over there and was helped immediately. Wile waiting for the cut I was asked a couple times if I needed help with anything.

Yeah, dealership cost on my keys was like 76 each. It’s a simple key with a certain resistor. Thankfully I ordered mine a while back for 15 a piece.  
But a G6 with the newer chipped keys I ca see them being pricey.
