I was under the impression that you have to go to the stealer to get a key replacement?

Re: New Key

Do a search here. There was a thread a few years back. I bought a replacement key from oempartsdirect.com. It came programmed and ready to go. I think it was about $70 delivered. I did have to send a copy of my drivers license and title.

naw...RBrenton said no-go through his connection. unless someone comes up
with a less expensive option, Phil from formymercedes.com may have a very
competitive price....about $160 for a Smartkey
