I got the new key. Through the dealer.

It took them about 3 days to cut and ship the new one. I was actually very surprised.
Since I was away, I finally got into the dealership last night.
It took maybe 15 minutes to perform the programming and about 20 minutes paperwork (15 initially and 5 after the process).
It starts the car, ignition works.

However, as it turns out the remote was not programmed correctly... so I will have to be back.
I am not worried as that is not the most crucial part.
Yet I should have verified... but I was in a rush to get back home as someone was coming.
Ugh.


Now, the financial part.
As I mentioned initially they quoted over $500. But someone on FB mentioned that I can get a discount being PCA member.
As it turns out, the discount knocked the total cost to $426 after taxes and all. Not bad.

Still a lot, but fully functional key with factory codes, if I needed another one, or was to lose them.
