    I would like a 3rd extra one, but I don't feel like paying whatever the dealer wants for one, because I know it's too much! Does anyone know of an aftermarket source and how much they might be? What about programming it? I asume it needs to be programmed.

    I think if you buy it from anyone except Toyota, you're buying a used fob. I also believe that Toyota must do the programming to match it to your car.

    There are quite a number of threads on this topic. Do a search for "extra key" and see what you can find.
