    I lost one of my two fobs, can the dealer match the remaining one or is there another/better way to replace it?

    It makes no sense to buy from the stealership when you can buy them for a fraction of the price and program it yourself.

    ^ this. Make sure you read the FCC number on the back of your current fob and ensure that the fob you buy is correct. programming should take you anywhere from 1-2 minutes depending on how fast you can open the box it is shipped in
