Ok well we got a copy from the dealership today for $50 and then did the transponder trick like the guy said (i was surprised he told us that)

Thank you all for the help!

 

Uhhhhh. Do you have an illegal part time job at night?

 

Glad you're back on the road, I know how little fun being locked out of a car is, its like going to the dentist....just something you'd rather avoid at all costs.

 

I'm sure there is a car I can't break into, I just haven't found it yet.

Getting the key cut is the next best option.

 

For future reference, Chevy Roadside Assistance will provide this service for free. I locked my keys in the car here at work, and they sent a contract company out to do it. If you don't have OnStar, this is available until the car is 5 years old, or has 100,000 miles (at least for my '08). They used an inflated balloon and a slim jim device like ChevyMgr showed above.

 

Man, why am I flashing back to the Fonz on Happy Days?

I've got this mental vision of you going up to a car, thumping it and saying "Ayyyy"....then the locks pop.
