I got a quote of $400 plus programming $ to get a new remote for our 2011 LR4 from the dealer. Then $90 to get the blade cut. Then I got a quote from a locksmith of $280 for programming but he isn't quite sure he can do it (??). So I would have to get a key on eBay for $40-$80 bucks and then hope he is able to program it.
After those options I am thinking of just getting the IID tool and being done with it. I don't really tinker much with my vehicles but I would use it for the digital speedo, the windows up option and little things like that so I guess it would be worth it.
Island 4x4 has it for $423 after exchange and I am waiting on a shipping quote. LRdirect has them but they are out of stock. Those are the two I have seen mentioned here besides Lucky8 but they want $570 just to be stateside apparently.
Any places I am missing?
Am I thinking correctly that I'm better off getting for ~$450 I can get the tool and then find a remote on eBay so let's call it $500 I would be good to go and have the options of tinkering with the truck vs $400+ from a dealer or $350 from a locksmith and then all I have is a remote and that's it.
