Review on KeylessOption HYQ12BBY Keyless Entry Car Remote Control Key Fob Replacement by Charles Notti

For a fraction of the cost of a dealer supplied remote key, it was good value. The only problem was finding a facility willing to carve the key without charging you more than the key is worth. Online help directing you to local locksmiths who will come out and shorten the key just isn't going to be cost effective. If I want to spend that much money, I might as well go to the dealer. A recommended major hardware store refused to cut the key down unless they sold it. The help that came with the key was a waste of time. In desperation, I went to an old, reliable local hardware store. They carved a $2 key with the caveat that due to programming, they wouldn't give any guarantees. Once I knew the key fit, the programming guide was there. Even if an outsider would tell me I'm crazy about having to open and close the driver's door all the way to program the key (I wonder if all the steps were necessary or if the clerk was just making fun of my bill). Somehow the key worked and all was right with the world. Bottom line, good quality, looks like the original, great price, good luck finding someone to cut the blank. And if you hire a locksmith as suggested, be prepared to shell out a few bucks.
