Not possible to do it on that vehicle. The best bet would be to call a mobile locksmith, they can run the VIN through GM and get the key cuts and then make you new keys for less than the dealer. The last cars where you could really hotwire were the early 80's before computer control took over. Even then it was far more work than what movies and TV show.
