The Pontiac flip key, and how we set one up.
The Pontiac G8 came from GM's Australian Holden side, and its key is different from the North American GM keys of the same era: a switchblade-style flip key with the remote buttons on the head. This five-button version goes beyond lock, unlock, trunk and panic with one more function, typically remote start, so check your original's icons and make sure they match before you order. Folding keys like this most often fail at the hinge. The spring that throws the blade open weakens, or the blade pivot snaps, while the remote buttons are often still fine. If only the housing is damaged, ask whether moving your existing board into a new shell is an option. If the key is lost or the electronics are dead, the full flip key is what you need. Our side of the job is cutting the folding blade to your car and programming the transponder and remote to the vehicle. That programming needs the car present, so either drive it to us or have us come to you, and bring the registration and photo ID. Ask us to confirm the fit for your exact model and year.
How to order. Call with the SKU. We confirm the price, the stock and the fit, then cut, program or fit it. Items in stock are usually ready the same day.
