Guest Mc_Reatta Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 (edited) If you want the whole key try:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/90-91-BUICK-REATTA-UNCUT-VATS-IGNITION-KEY-BLANK-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem2eb634b62eQQitemZ200625403438QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessoriesIf you want a cheater resistor:I'd try this from Rat Shack:560 ohm 1/2W 5% Carbon Film Resistor pk/5 - RadioShack.comOr I used to frequent this surplus dealer in Winter Park when I was that way. You might give them a call tomorrow and see if they have any.Skycraft Parts & Surplus, Inc. MAIN RETAIL STORE 2245 West Fairbanks Ave. Winter Park, FL 32789 Phone (407) 628-5634 Fax (407) 647-4831 Email: Skycraft Information Retail Store Hours: Mon-Fri: 8:30am - 6:00pm East Saturday: 8:30am - 5:00pm East Sunday: ClosedUnless you have other stuff you want to order I think Digi-Key or other online electronics store is impractical for one resistor.

Jim Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Any locksmith would have them but they are about $ 25.I might have one from one of my parts cars that have been junked and I still have the keys. I could measure it but it would not be cut right for your car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harry yarnell Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 I can send you a resistor to solder in the leads at the steering column connector if you want. Give me an address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
padgett Posted July 3, 2011 Author Share Posted July 3, 2011 Thanks Harry but prefer to keep that part stock as long as I can get a second key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
