    I just bought and programmed using the "chicken dance" a new third party smart key. It was only $75 total (about half the price of OEM) including shipping and tax (using a 10% off coupon). It was from carandtruckremotes.com.

    I was skeptical that a non-OEM key FOB would work, but it did!

    Thanks for the tip. I was hesitant after passing through their site a few months ago, so many thanks for sharing your experience with their aftermarket fob. Wish we had a direct connection to the seller to save even more : )
