    Was hoping to hear an answer to this, bought a car with only one fob .

    When searched almost all content deals with the Gen 2 and I know they can be programmed via the car .

    Your safest options, i.e., ones that are guaranteed to work, are the dealer or certified locksmith. DIY, ebay, etc. is too risky. If you have a working fob, locate the FCC ID printed on back. It might be HYQ14ACX. This is the type of fob you need. We checked our dealer, and it was about $180 for blank key and "virgin" fob (one that had never been programmed) from the Parts Dept. Then there was labor to program the fob and cut the key. Maybe $300 for the entire job?

    You can buy a new fob online for about $110. If you have a working key fob, you can duplicate that easily with instructions on this site. Look up."How to program sks key"
