The Camaro Club (UK)

hi all,

i have a 95 Z28 and ive lost the keys. i have a spare toad alarm fob that opens the central locking so i can get into the car, my question is does anyone know if i can just replace the cylinder & key from a breaker camaro, or does it need reprogramming? or is it easiet to get a new cylinder and blank keys from rockauto?

the cylinder from rockauto http://www.rockauto.co.uk/catalog/morei ... cc=1035908 only has blank template keys with it so i dont know who can program them as they wont start the car due to the VATS....

any help will be apreciated as im kinda stuck

ive done some more searching and i think ive found the answer...

i buy a new cylinder and key from rockauto, then i find the resisance value of the origninal passkey using the resistor trick. once found i order a new blank passkey from the states and get it cut....phew! easier to type than do......

lesson learned is get a spare cut or at least get the value of the resistance on your key.....

any help or suggestions on an alternative method will be apprieciated

cheers

Might be worth a call to Bauer Millett.

You can get a new key based on the VIN anyway without a new key barrel

Thanks for the replies,

Ringram - any idea where I can get a key based on the VIN?

The Only other thing is the car is a jap import don't know if that would make any difference regarding the vin?

Cheers

I think a call to Bauer Millett will help

as the others, do try Bauer millet first as they were and stil are a UK supplier. The jap import still came from the states originally and all VINs will be on a database.

Have a good rummage in all coat pockets etc though and check under units, I lost mine a while back (but had a spare set) then found them under a massive pile of stuff I have been waiting to sort out :S

Hope they can help and you can get spares for each

happy days bauer millet saved my ass!

full set is about 95 quid so not cheap but better than changing a barrel and fiddling with resistors

cheers for your help guys
