Im not sure a locksmith can do this for our cars. Laser cut keys** I think the dealership will have to do it.

A local locksmith in my area can cut the "laser" cut keys provided a blank which is odd since anything in Mississippi can hardly do any service lol.

I heard before that it was like $350 or something from dealer.
Surprised me because that's not very expensive for all the work that has to be done.

yeah he wants new lock cylinders though. which use the laser cut keys. he needs more than just that expensive a$$ key. i dont think there will be such a thing as a decent price for all of that

I heard somewhere that the 2001, you'd need to replace ECU? May be wrong, not sure

Either way, in 01 if you loose the master key you will need to buy a new ECU and of course new key$$! So get another key and stash away the master just in case
