How to program new key
Hi, I just bought an 07 SS/SC, I bought it from an insurance auction, it's a write-off , I originally bought it for a parts car so I could fix another one, but now that I have it at home and I've had a better look I'd like to fix this one, it has 80,000km (50,000m).
My problem is I don't have any keys, the local dealer said they will replace the ignition switch and locks under the recall (but not with the write-off status), they also said they can cut me a key ($38) but without an original they said I can't program it. They said I could tow it in and they would program a new key for $100.
I'm wondering if anyone knows of a way I can start the car to see if it even runs, I'd like to see how it runs before I put any money into repairing it.
Thanks for your time.

Who did you order the key from?
The dealer will cut me a key from the VIN but said there is no way for me to program it, they said I have to bring the car in for programing.
Do you still have those instructions.
