OK i just won an uncut key and fob off e-bay and now i need to know how to program it to my car. I do not want to take it to the dealer if i do not have to since i am sure they will charge me for it. Does anyone know how to program these or is there a write up on how to do it? Thanks

you have to have 2 working keys to do this. The process is as follows:

insert one good key, turn ignition to on (don't start car)
turn off take out key
insert other good key, turn ignition to on (don't start car)
turn off take out key
put in new key, turn ignition to on - then start car.

However, i'm pretty sure this doesn't program the fob part of the key to open the doors, and i think the dealer needs to do that, but i could be wrong.

I hope it does both. But i got the uncut key with fob (looks just like the 2 i got when i purchased the car) off e-bay for $36 so if i do have to have the dealer program something i will still be saving money over just buying it.

Just got the key in and had it cut. the above listed also works for the key fob. It locks unlocks and starts the car. Not bad for less than $45 shipped and then cut.
