Can a used card key be reprogrammed?
I'm guessing the dealer won't even try to reprogram an old card key like this one https://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-Mercede...5/333395744575
Is it something I can do with STAR/DAS ?
Are there locksmiths that can do it?
Any idea why the prices on eBay for them range from $40 TO $230?
I've read the posts here, "DIY: Keyless Go upgrade for '03 models equipped with the Keyless Go 'card'" and "Learning new keyless-go" but I'm wondering if getting an old card is more reliable or easier.

Hmmmm... so I never got the card when I bought the car.... but I have the normal keys.... but I'm guessing the chip in those keys are not compatible with the card style key.
Guess I'll work up the courage to try the "DIY KG..." process... someday :-)
