Hi guys,
I just bought 2008 vrx, the thing is the previous owner just had one smart key without emergency key, I just wondering how much it cost me to get new emergency key which I don't have the original one

I think they are about $20-30 from the dealer and then whatever it costs to have it cut. Soon as you don't have a key to copy, you may need to go to a locksmith to get one cut rather than Mr Minit.

Andrew, I'm not so sure that it's 30.

When i bought my VR, the previous owner also lost the key. The dealers were offering me $300 not including getting it cut. It's gonna be pricy. But call the dealers and confirm. All i know was it's a high price.

I was referring to the price of the emergency key only, not the smart key as that is what the OP was asking about.
