They said they charge for the key not the cut. Total for the two VATS keys was $24.43 (insurance included) shipped. I got them in two days from Chatsworth, CA. So I ended up getting both the VATS keys for less than the dealer wanted for just one, which was $27.00. I now have spare ignition keys for both vehicles. WHEW.
This seller has instructions on each auction (he also has a website) on how to figure the key needed. You just have to know how (or know someone who does) to use a multimeter to measure the resistance of the keys.

John you can just take your key to ACE hardware and they can read the key number for you as well. My local ACE has the equipment. Now if you dont have a key to read well then the ohm method is real darn handy lol. GC
