new owner of a 2nd hand Corolla

[caleb]

hi all,

i've just recently purchase a 2nd hand corolla hatcback build 2005.

unfornately, the car only came with 1 set of keys, and i would like to get an extra set, i rang up toyota at waterloo, sydney and got a quote of 400+ to get an extra set of keys. which is really alot to pay.

so does anyone know how/where i can get duplicate keys (with keyless entry) for a cheaper price?

You really need to provide more information first...

Is it an Ascent? If so, it uses a standard master key and depending on model year, a Vision sourced - Toyota branded remote. Key is about $70 plus cutting, remote is about $35, plus programming.

If it's a Conquest/Levin/Ultima/Sportivo, then it will use a (Fujitsu Ten sourced) combined Toyota master key/remote. These are the dear ones ($278 list, by memory) so by the time you add on mark-up, cutting and programming, yes, you'll be looking at around $400 if yours is other than an Ascent.

i asked my dealer before and they quoted me $300 for the keys.

my is a ascent. but the previous owner had his car broken into before so he had the key/remote has been replaced (they are both seperate and not on one key) so its not the original ones that toyota gives?

Unless you can program it yourself, you will be paying plenty
