When I got the door mech repaired/replaced it came with a new key blade. I bought a "spare" key head from the dealer. The spare key just has the little chip in it (no remote entry) and they programmed the car to the chip.

I had spent enought getting the door lock fixed, I didn't feel like spending more for a FOB head ($200 more).

SunCoast does sell either version with all the proper paperwork. You just need to get a dealer to program the car to the chip.
