Keyless Go Blank key fob

My 2013 CLS 550 was verified to have Keyless Go by the dealer who looked up my VIN number. The original Keyless Go fob disappeared sometime during a previous ownership, and a non Keyless Go fob was programmed according to the CarFax records. The dealer stated that there are currently no blank Keyless Go fobs available through Mercedes Benz and to check back in 6 months. He could not verify that they would ever become available.
Does anyone know of a third party locksmith who supplies Keyless Go keys and have the ability to program them? I really would like to enjoy the feature that is available to my car.

I'd start calling locksmiths and maybe checking Amazon or other online places. Seems like that shouldn't be impossible to find.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll post if I get it done successfully.

I went to Armstrong Locksmith in Nashville.TN. They had a key fob and programed it for my car. Now all Keyless Go functions are working. I had to drive there from McCalla, AL, but it was worth it.

Did they give you an OEM Mercedes Key FOB?

The key had the Mercedes Benz chrome metal star logo on it and the locksmith said that it is OEM. It is my understanding that non OEM key fobs do not have a star and I do have a non OEM key which does not have the star. I also have a standard OEM key fob, that does not support KeyLess Go, which does have the star logo.
That's the best answer I can give you. The key has worked flawlessly and I am enjoying all the features of the KeyLess Go option.
