Hi All,
first time poster with a quick question.

I was recently given a car starter for Christmas. My car is a 2005 so in order to set it up they need the security chip from my spare key. I'm now having to go back to the dealership to get a new spare. I've heard (but could be completely wrong) that some hardware stores are able to copy keys at a much cheaper rate without the chip and it's just as effective as a spare...

Has anyone tried this or know of a local spot that has mastered the art of saving me $100!

Thanks!

Ehow.com has a brief explanation of how remote car starters work here (http://www.ehow.com/how-does_4564511_remote-car-starter-work.html).
As for price, $150 seems to be on the low end of the price range for them.
