2006 r500
Everything around the key is a royal pain. You basically have to take it to a dealership or someone who has the ability to reprogram everything. It's a "theft deterrent " thing. I had to go to dealership to just get a extra key on my made, was almost 300 bucks 2 yrs ago, and we have an 06 r500 also
