I DO hope you are taking the advise of" "KDW4Him" post, regarding the disassembly of EXISTING key assembly, and NOT just buying a BLANK assembly off E-Bay cutting the key and hoping it will work. IT WILL NOT, as it has to be programmed to the car. Buying blanks off E-Bay is a cheap jack fools errand.
You need to do the job right OR don't bother at all. By the time you buy off E-Bay and add to that the cost, as indicated by others, to be $50 by a locksmith, ends up at 50% of the cost of buying a OEM unit already programmed, AND you MAY even F$#% things up during the disassembly and reassembly of the Original key assembly ????
All seems futile to me. !!!!
