    Best option for spare key?

    I did not have to end up getting one cut - the wife found her keys so mine is still a spare. Check what you are getting on ebay is a full key since the VE key comes in two parts, the flip key part and then the immobiliser section on the back. The ones on ebay were usually just the flip key...

    Best option for spare key?

    even better my missus found her lost keys on the weekend so no need to get another one cut - she thought she lost them at the beach but it was in some junk in the garage. It almost to the stage of putting your car keys on the home and contents policy for loss or theft like my watch and the...

    Best option for spare key?

    I looked on the US Pontiac G8 website and they have a 356 page manual on there as pdf which has the key programming instructions - Pontiac | Pontiac Vehicle Owners Manuals I think that the Personalisation Options are disabled on the Omega/Lumina - is there a way to get the Remote Key option...

    Best option for spare key?

    Thanks Boy1236 Will have to try that also. I used to have a VT and bought a spare key from a locksmith. I think to get that to work after it was cut, had to do something similar to what you suggest. Once I find a blank and get it cut, will try that although I think if they are charging $65...

    Best option for spare key?

    Hi guys, Am in the market for a spare key for the VE and am a bit bemused at the cost. The local Holden dealer wanted $190 for a standard key blank, $50 for cutting and $65 to program = $305. The flip key was an extra $27 I think. I found a local locksmith who said they can supply, cut...

    60th Anniversary accessories

    i think the pontiac G8 get the chrome door surrounds as standard and see that a couple of australian websites sell them the standard black door surrounds for $400 to $500 USD. Maybe some of the US guys want to do a straight swap, there are quite a few G8 forums around. They say that some...

    overhead monitor

    looking on the holden website, they list the 6-stacker as a factory fitted option only for $595 - i bought my car at just over a year old and it only had the single CD fitted. Interesting that it is not a dealer fitted option - must be something more to it. Anyone got any ideas or insight...

    V8 Rear Muffler on a V6 Omega

    the dealer parts guy I spoke told me that a holden mechanic will not carry out modifications that vary from the spec for that model, I had asked for a quote on installing an SV6 exhaust - maybe it was just that dealer. he suggested I try a local exhaust shop instead.

    V8 Rear Muffler on a V6 Omega

    warranty issues? Hi guys, I have a VE Lumina that I am looking at updating to the SV6 or SS exhaust (probably the SV6). After getting under and seeing that gaping hole where the left muffler is supposed to be, is crying out for it. Called the parts dept at the dealer about the extra parts...
