Of course it needs to be cut to your vehicle, by a locksmith. Bring your own key.
I think it is best if you get your facts right before making these statements. With your method all security would be lost, I think you had better read some more.

Erroneous statements could lead to someone spending $$$$$$$$ on parts that are of limited or no use to them.

The secret of the fobs security is a little chip 1/16" x 1/16" x .050 thick, this chip only answers the one specific signal from the SKREEM matched specifically to it. This chip cannot be programed by the dealer, the only programing they can do for $100 is the lock/unlock feature which you can do for nothing very easily.

The transmitter that opens the doors I believe is dependent on the correct chip sending a signal to the SKREEM and the SKREEM recognizing the signal, OK's the programing of the door lock feature when you trigger this by pressing the button while the key is in the ignition. If the key does not fit it just wont happen.

The Chrysler appointed company gets all the pertinent info on the original car and then programs and cuts the key to suit this info. You will have to prove that it is your car the key is for.
