I want to get a third spare key for my sister in case she needs to drive it. I want to know how much usually the spare key cost and how long does it take to order one from the dealership.
 
If you want to get an OEM key they're $20 at the stealership. Last time I got one it took about 2 days to get there, and they need you VIN to have the key correctly cut.
 
It's always nice to have a spare, right after i bought my N/T the passenger handle snapped, next day i took it to the carwash and left my keys in the ignition, forgot my change so went to get back in and *SNAP* driver handle snapped. Had absolutely no way to get in and had to break a window just to get back into my car. I was pissed for days LOL.

It's normally a rule of thumb for me to keep a spare in my wallet.

DSMS are notoriously easy to get into with a coat hanger.. no need to break anything.. there isnt even a top window moulding!:rolleyes:

Or better yet, get an extra metal only (it's thinner) key made and toss it in one of these:
Walmart.com: Magnetic Key Holder: Accessories

Find a nice flat metal spot under the car, you can reach without laying down, and never worry about being locked out again! All my vehicles have em...
