Only have one set of keys for my 93'. What's the easiest/cheapest way to get another set of keys made?
Thanks!

Local ACE, True Value or Do It Best should have them for around $15.

well ive got a 95 and i have that computer chip thing in mine, so i cant just go to any place to get it cut. so if you go to a gm place and ask what the resistance is, than order the key online, than you can go somewhere and have it cut. Cost: 20 bucks

I thought they all had the VATS chip? I just went to a local locksmith, he tested the resitor & cut a key for $20.
