Smart keys represent the latest evolution in automotive key technology. They combine multiple functions in one fob: passive entry (proximity unlock), push-button ignition, remote start (on equipped vehicles), trunk release, panic alarm, and sometimes memory seat and mirror positions.
Programming a smart key requires registering the fob across all these subsystems. Our programming equipment handles multi-system registration in a single session through the OBD-II port.
OEM smart keys from the vehicle manufacturer cost $200-$500+ at dealerships. Quality aftermarket smart keys cost $100-$250 through a locksmith. The aftermarket keys use the same chip technology and are programmed using the same protocols. Functional performance is identical.
The difference: OEM keys may have slightly higher build quality in the case/buttons, and they carry the manufacturer's logo. Aftermarket keys work the same but may feel slightly different in hand. Both options are available from Treasure Coast Locksmith.
Programming only (you have the fob): $75-$150. Fob + programming (we supply everything): $200-$350. All-keys-lost smart key: $250-$400. Every quote is final - no hidden fees.
