>>> Doubt it. It’s considered a “safety/security” part, meaning that you would have ot provide all of your personal and car information to them, and they wouldn’t be able to test the key. You know all too well the pitfalls of tryign to get a key on your own -you’ve said your local stealership won’t cooperate - at least you did in the past.
