I think it looks like a good deal. Basically you get the keys, take them to there dealers and they will take your key and make 2 copies of it. Sounds like a good deal to me.

i guess you'll still have to make the key fit the specific car, but with bit of work, you could get that done. man, immobilizer gone to crap.

These are blank keys and you would still have to have both original keys to program the new ones. Transponder keys are not programmed when they are blank keys they have to be "programmed" after they have been cut, and inserted in the ignition after you have inserted the two original keys from the factory. If you don't have both keys then the dealership charges big bucks to make a new one.

Exactly. One of the first things I did was to buy a 3rd key from the dealership and have them cut it to match mine. I "programmed" the new key myself based on the instructions on the owners manual. That way I won't need the dealership to "program" another key if I loose one.
