This looks helpful for those of us with a locked-out 2001 GMC Sierra.

I can’t believe I found this. Been stuck with my 2001 GMC Sierra too.

Can confirm it worked for my 2013 2001 GMC Sierra.

This might finally help me unlock my 2001 GMC Sierra's key code.

My 2001 GMC Sierra might finally get back on the road thanks to this.

Why is finding a key code on a 2001 GMC Sierra this hard?!
