Replacement Keyless Go Fob

Is my only option to go to my local dealer and pay their $450?


Is their a known national dealer that can do this cheaper and remotely?

Much appreciated.

I found that link as well, just unsure of the legit nature of what they claim to offer.

I plan to call them in the am to hear what they have to say as the 2015 GL is not listed on the site.

A gaggle of MB's
Frankly - for a 2015 GL - key should be about $375 - DAS 4 - they order in from MB - security documents are required to order - programmed at dealership - and MB is requiring the dealer NOT to send keys out - in person, or designated person, pickup... the security requirements from MB are for your security frankly....

Lol... That what I said.

There have been over 100 people thru this house over the last week, and many were small children, so the possibilities of where the key is endless unfortunately.


I am hesitate to go anywhere but the dealer. We'll see.

Is your plumbing OK? Your fob may have gone the way of a dead goldfish.

Fortunately, they don't hand out the key codes by simply providing a VIN. You have to prove ownership of said VIN.
