Just noticed my manual had been stolen out of my truck at some point recently, does anyone know if they have the info inside to have a replacement key made?

Its an 08 Silverado.

I'm sure the VIN would be required which would not be in the manual

I wouldn't worry about it. The manual is probably worth more than the truck.

You can see those thru the front windshield though.

The manual is generic - not specific to your truck.

unless they stole the manual to write the VIN on, the manual by itself wouldn't help anyone get a key made

I figured that but I saw some articles online where car thieves were supposedly getting replacement keys made with info from the manual?

I googled it because I was curious why someone would steal a manual in the first place.

Do you still have the automatic? If so you should be OK.

Nobody broke into your truck to steal the manual - you just lost it.
