*sigh*
There once was a time when a replacement key cost less than a buck. Alas...
I bought a 2006 Acura MDX from an old couple my wife and I know from church. Of course, it only had one key/FOB.
No biggie...I got great deal on the vehicle. More than enough of a deal to justify the cost of a new spare key/FOB.
But man... it's STILL insane!
Last time I had this done was for a used car I bought at a dealership, and they didn't have the replacement key/FOB in stock. So they cut the price of the cost of the car and I got it done later.
ACE Hardware, it turns out, makes them too. Just called them and it'll be $90 for the key, $190 for the FOB.
Joy Locksmith said $180 for both.
I haven't checked a dealer yet, but Lord knows they won't be any cheaper.
I'm thinking of buying a couple aftermarket FOBs and programming them myself, then just having a couple new keys cut/programmed.
