It has the passkey III system from GM and yes,
it is a pain.

Ok, then this is what you should do...

Go get 2 non transponder keys cut at
the hardware store for 3 bucks each.  
Get a universal bypass module (key-in-a-box style)
at www.REMOTESTARTCENTRAL.com for 25.00.

Then wrap the coil around the key cylinder,
secured in place with hot-glue..connect the
status input wire to chassis ground and the
positive to ignition...no more transponder
key required.  No dealership will program
a key to a non matching VIN ECM.

Besides, the total cost on this is
substantially less than what a dealership
would charge.

I hope this helps.
It is truely the cheapest way
to get around it for good.

Answer
Then you are going to have to have GM make you one
unfortunately. There is no way around that that
I know of at this point.

Sorry.

I hope you can get it done relatively
cheap. They will need the VIN number an your
registration so a key can be made.

Good luck with it.
