You can purchase the key on the web and program it yourself.

I wish I would have known about them prior to my so happily saying "I'll buy three" and then found out the price.
 
Honestly think that the "problem" if there IS one is in the seemingly outrageous markup on the actual key itself ("I" programmed it by sitting in my car, starting it with the key that came with the car - shutting it off, and then starting it with one of the REPLACEMENT keys). $47.86 for one key is somehow just too high to be acceptable to me...
  
I've reported it also to some state PIRG groups ... was looking at Ralph Nader's site...
  
Hope you have a terrific weekend ...
  
God bless ... and thank you again!

me and my boyfriend rebuild cars. he owns his own dealership. of course we get our parts at dealer cost which helps. but you would be surprised how the prices are. something that you would think would be expensive is cheap and some little cheap piece of plastic is expensive! the little stuff is always more!
 
yeah, keys with computer chip will run you about that price! unfortunatly! why? who knows why?
