GLA 250 4Matic
Create Keyless Go Spare or Clone?

Hi All
I recently purchased a 2016 GLA 250 4Matic from a non MB dealer. They only have 1 key and I am looking to make a second key,
The car is equipped with a Keyless Go so the second key must be able to function like my other one and only keyless go key.
Should I get a spare key or clone my current key?
If I want to make a spare key, what do I need?
If I just want to clone my current key, what do I need?
This is for a keyless go key.

All googling is pointing me towards a dealership but it's quite the hefty price tag.

Yes, a pricey proposition, but best served by dealership procurement/programming for assured compatibility.

A gaggle of MB's
Dealership only buddy ... if you have multiple dealerships in your area - good to call each one to see who has best "total" price..
