so i lost my car keys...
whats the best route to get another one made?
Dealership the only way?
thanks in advance

 

about 300 dollars just for the key, that happened to me once too =/ im pretty sure its only through dealer too..

 

thanks man, guess off to the dealer i go

 

1. go to ebay buy a key ~$10-20
2. call a locksmith, have them cut and program it, $ depends on locksmith, but probably ~$50, the car has to be there because these are transponder keys, they can probably come to you and make it for a higher price.
3. test it
4. zooooooooom zoooooooom

 

wish i waited
-$60 for a tow truck
-nissan 1st charged 144.99
-later got a call, ended up charging me $215

 

I needed a spare key awhile back and yes, locksmith charged me $50 to make & program. Also bought a couple of remotes on ebay for cheap. You can easily program those yourself.

 

bought my 08g in february, only had one I-key. bought a remote and blank key off ebay for $35 (checked to make sure it was the proper key) and then called around to 2 infiniti and 2 nissan dealerships and 10 minutes, before i found one nissan dealer who cut and program my key for $50. i was a bit lucky i guess.
this forum was a great help in leading me to an efficient solution.
