  • What is the cheapest option (no remote is ok)?
  • Do I need to look for a specific chip? If so, which chip?
  • Can I program the key myself? Or is special equipment required?
  • Is it safe to buy a key from eBay (generic one) as long as its’ the same shape?

FYI, my key looks like this:

Thanks

is that 'similar' to the BF/FG style of flip key? [looked at link & not sure]. if it is 'same' same ... would just need to check if chip is compatible with your car.
