yup I didn't fall for that.
The key I got for $250 was already programmed, the dealers all use one source in Houston.
I am no dummie, I knew the buyer at a dealership and before he retired I usually got 15% off everything.

I will keep looking and report here.
I may have to stoop so low as to use my local dealer or I should say STEALer, They got caught selling non OEM parts. everyone got a pittance back after a class action lawsuit nailed them on it.. I'd rather not give them a dime, thats why I am willing to drive 30, 50, even 90 miles to get a key.
If I save a buck it will pay for the diesel fuel, if not then at least I won't feel I am supporting my local STEALER!
