Key Question

I would like to have another spare key just to unlock the doors. Is it possible to take my resistor type key to say Wallly-Town and have just a regular key cut? I thought I would ask here first, I thought maybe a regular key may trip the OEM alarm or something. If it's OK to do, what if I accidently put that key in the ignition? Other than a no start situation, would it screw something up?

Thank You...
Spotty

It will work fine, I have one as well. Not sure how in depth the factory alarm is, but I tried it in the ignition (out of curiosity) no ill effects...but, no, it won't start.

Thank You... I am always worried I'll lock those keys and remote in the vehicle while it's running. I will go get a $1.00 key made and stash it somplace.. Thanks again!
