Default FOB without a key?

I bought a used C6 a week ago and it came with only one FOB.

I just read another post/thread abot questions concerning entering a powerles vehicle and the answer was sort of.....just unlock unlock the hatch with your key from the FOB and use the latch in the cargo room.

Problem for me would be.....I'm missing the fob key.

Ok....so I went to GM's website and searched for fob replacements and came up with nothing.

Does anyone know how to get a replacement FOB with a key?
I've found replacement ones on the net with blank keys....but I don't have a working key to make copies of?

Best regards.

If memory serves me correctly, I think you can take the key with the car's VIN to a Chevy dealer and he can cut you a key for your car from that blank.

Bring the registration or pink slip with you...they will want proof of ownership that has your name and the VIN on it.

Default Hatch entry key

Your type of fob came with a separate flat head key that resembled a valet key. It was designed to slip into ones wallet. On the back of your fob is a box with the GM part number, battery number and, the FCC ID. There is also a 1 or a 2 number stamped into the plastic. This will tell you if you have the primary (#1) fob or, the secondary (#2) fob.
