Take your proof of ownership(registration or title)and your photo ID to your local GM dealership. They will be able to cut you a brand new key from the key code. It will work perfectly in all of your lock cylinders unless they have been changed, or something is wrong with one of them.

Fairly certain I can fix u up man. I'll have to sort through some handles, but I should have a set & matching ignition. BTW, poor locksmithing....my father-in-law is a locksmith & he can duplicate a GM truck key with only having looked at it!

Find another dealer, my dealer has never charged me to do it, only the $4 or $5 they get for a key. Until GM clamped down on proof of ownership, I use to take yard VIN's in when I got a column out of a vehicle, that didn't have a key.
I bet they charge $50 to get you the unlock code for the radio, too, even though GM doesn't charge them

the 50$ charge is a universal GM thing, and you're lucky if your dealership doesn't charge you. GM requires all dealerships to charge for a VIN lookup. every dealer in Montgomery, Birmingham, and Huntsville have told me the same thing, so I believe them. even if that makes me a little , but that's what i get for going to the dealership.
