And I know how to SNIP


I have a Nissan Versa 2012 Standard Edition purchased used with only one
key and fob. I'd like to get a duplicate key in case of loss. I emailed
the local Nissan dealer and they said:

"The key for that vehicle runs $48.82 plus $50.00 to program all existing
keys and new key. Also if you are looking to get an extra key fob, the
key fob is $131.39. Let me know."

This is outrageous. A local lock shop says they can duplicate my current
key for $65. Why so much cheaper? Is it safe to duplicate a programmed
("chipped") key - any possibility they can damage it so I end up with no
key?

Ahh, progress!

Any suggestions?

TIA

Short answer, because the can...

The local ACE will read the chip on your existing key and duplicate it on
the new keys chip. $75 IIRC
