Are you sitting down?

Plan on spending several hundred dollars. You can only get the key from a dealer. You might be able to get a remote off eBay, then take it to the dealer and complain that it doesn't work (don't tell them where you got it) and thereby get them to program it for just a software charge to save a few bucks. I heard the keys have to be lasercut in Sweden then overnighted to the dealer, but I don't know if that's true.

Is there any way you can search for the lost ones?
