    I got my car key and fob from Amazon for $30 (pair of two) that your website is selling for $150 (just one). I was able to get the key cut by a locksmith but need to program the fob and will find another way to do that since your website doesn't have the instructions.

      We are usually very competitive. Got to be careful though because a lot of cars have different variants of the remote/ fob. One will be $20 while the other $120. If you don't see instructions for how to program it yourself that most likely means you need to have a locksmith or dealer program it for you 👍🏻

    A bit off topic, hoping you can help me: need to program Ranger BCM, nobody does it where I live and want to learn and do it myself. What equipment I’d need to purchase/software and where to find 5r guideline for this procedure? 😢 Thank you very much in advance.

    Could you please make a video about how to secure a backyard glass sliding door? My friend's house was broken in recently. The burglar smashed the glasses. Is there anything like film can prevent this? Thanks.

      Yeah, we explain that in our video on car key types. We don't sell the keys because hardly anybody can program them. Most the time you're required to go to the dealer, so don't buy one online, because the dealer will require you to use theirs.

      @@LocksmithRecommended How about a video explaining exactly what is meant by key "Programing". I have a mechanics scanner that is capable of reflashing & programing the car computers & many other options as well, but I am in a quandary right now with replacing a lost 4 Button Key/Immobilizer for my 2019 Subaru Outback. It is a "G" key blank. I can get those easily enough, & I can get it cut anyplace, but the "Programing" is where I get confused. My scanner can access the immobilizer in my car & does what it calls "Immobilizer Key Identification", where it reads the ID number of the keys and you can then add that key ot delete keys from the Immobilizer at the push of the button on the scanner. Is that the same thing as what the dealers screw you for hundreds of dollars and call it "Programing the Key"?😖 Seems like a simple question, but have not been able to find the answer to it anywhere yet>

    You didn't explain WHY you would want or need to program your own remote key. Do they lose programming or something?

    • @LocksmithRecommended
      @LocksmithRecommended  Před rokem +1

      That's a good point. Noted. Say your teenager has become a driver so you want to add another key)remote for them. Or you lost a key and you're making sure you have a backup, because key origination is VERY expensive.
