Don't break off a key belonging to a 92-99 bonnie. To get it replaced is $27, and that'* not even at a dealership
But at least I have my back-up key again...

I read an article the other day that talked about how manufacturers are doing all they can to make it impossible and illegal for a locksmith to duplicate cars keys.
While in Scotland the rental car keys only roughly resemble an actual key. The are not easily copied as the "key" portion is essentiall only an electrical jack to connect the electrical chip to the ignition and appears to be a complicated CNC machined shaft.
Expect key prices to continue going up....
