Hears the deal...
You can have as many keys as you wish for a 02-04 *I would assume this applies to the 99-01's also but not sure there*, but you have to have at least 2 keys inorder to program any more yourself. If you only have 1 key, then the dealer has to do it. I did some good old fashioned phone calls and I was told $80, $60, $39, and $25 just to do the programing. These dealerships are all within 30 miles of me. Very odd how each dealer gets to set their price on this but oh well. Also the dealers all wanted $25 per key, but ebay does have them for as low as $10 each.

So if you have 2 of your own keys... buy more off ebay, get them cut at a hardware store, and then program them via the instructions in your manual.

If you only have 1 key... like me... then your SOL. Buy of ebay, get it cut at a hardware store, and then call all the local dealers your willing to drive to and check thier price. As you can see above.. it can be very diff.
