check yer local locksmith.....a guy in my town did mine, actually he took it to a dealer where he does alot of work and had them do it...all in all cost me 25 bucks, It pays to check around, alot of locksmiths work with dealerships and actually can get you a better deal.

RE: Key progaming
I'm a locksmith in the Portland OR area. if all you got is the 1 key, it has to be programmed with a computer. the problem with this system is that the customer needs to get a special code from teh dealer. you should be able to go to the dealer and get that with the registration showing you own it.
Once you have that info SOME locksmiths can make it they will need a machine like a T-code with special software.
Once yoou have 2 keys you can do onboard programming up to 6 more keys. as far as some of the earlier posts said about grey keys, there is a huge difference between grey keys. by the way the owners manual for my 06 ram with the sentry system to do onboard programming is written wrong. It states to watch the sentry light for flashing, on my truck it was the Check Engine light that started flashing.
