Key help
I recently purchased a 05 c230 kompressor that was a repo that was on its way to the scrapper from a local dealer, in short they didn't have a key for it and MB wants to charge me 400.00 for a new one, is there any other way to get another key? I've seena couple of places that want you to send in for EIS online but i haven't seen any great reviews for them, Thanks in advance for any help.

400 is on the high side.
Call around to other dealers.
But you will have to bite the bullet and buy the key.
Otherwise have the EIS replaced, comes with key, ~ $1500.
