ecorepublican Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 My daughter just got her license and I would like to get her own key for the occasional drive in my C-Max. Can I get a key fob on Ebay with an uncut key - and then bring it to my Ford dealership for programming and cutting the key - the answer ? I plan on using MyKey for her key to the C-Max. Is it worth it ? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bemyax Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 I, too, would appreciate any current information on the topic. In the past, I've always made a third key for self-programming purposes. Researching a year ago didn't reveal a solution that was within my budget, so I just gave up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian_L Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) I think that would be a question that a quick call to your Ford service dept. would best answer. But I doubt they would have a key cutter. Edited March 27, 2015 by Adrian_L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bemyax Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 The first place I went last year was my local Ford parts department. When they said over $200US, I politely said goodbye. My internet searches yielded prices just over a hundred dollars. In my mind I couldn't confirm those blanks were compatible replacements. We have some really good locksmiths nearby, so I assumed one of them could cut it, but I never got that far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems cheap, wonder if they're right. Edit: To clarify, I think they mean the intelligent key for a hybrid SEL.
