Extra key fobs

Hi..
I just bought a Mercedes at the end of 2020, and I was only given one key with the car. It is a generic key fob but it works for the car. My question is… I also have a used Mercedes key fob, but it is not programmed for my car. Can I get a used key fob that was previously programmed for another Mercedes, programmed to my car?

used keys are useless they're locked to the original car but a good programmer can make you a key

Cool Thanks

Ya, I’ve found that out unfortunately. I was hoping I could at least use the used fobs, and just have two keys cut. The fobs are so expensive through the dealership and I wanted a real Mercedes key fob, not a generic one.
