Do anyone know where I can get this kind of key made?  Beside going to the dealer.  It’s for 2010 Toyota Camry if that matter.

pretty sure you can't get a coded key from anyone but a dealership, I'm not 100% positive but I think that's the case.

Correction...you can buy them online but they still have to be programmed which is expensive but the ones bought from third party sources are notorious for being cheap and breaking within days or weeks of being used.  If it were me I'd pony up and buy an authentic key from the dealership.  Hope you get it sorted, it's a damn scam how much they charge for a key!

Buy one online and program it yourself. Not sure about a Toyota but on some cars you can program up to three blanks (with RFID chips) with the car. You put in the oroginal key, turn it on/off twice, then remove and insert the blank and turn it on.let it sit, remove, then put it in and turn on the car. It worked like that on my Dodge.

Do this. Keys will be $10-$25ish on Amazon.

Read the reviews carefully before you buy, and skip over the shill reviews.  You'll be able to tell the difference because there will be several one star reviews and one or two "this is the greatest ever" 5 star reviews... uh huh.

If you are in the Okc area, there is a key shop on SW 59th just west of Blackwelder on the north side of the street that does stuff like that. My son has a ford explorer thar had to have a programmable key. Cost was $45.00 for it.

I haven't had any bad experiences thru Amazon. Ebay is a lot more hassle if you have problems. Amazon just takes a return authorization and that is easily done via the internet.
