Default Hey guys. I lost my only key and dealer wants $525!

Im just gonna buy the one half of the key that has my fcc code on it and purchase the rest on ebay and have locksmith cut them. Im pre immobilizer so i can program myself. But which part has the code on it? The remote or the side with the blade? And can i use the non switch blade type key as the ignition key instead of a second switchblade while having the switchblade in the doorlock for programming?

Have you considered purchasing another lock system with keys. No idea how much that might cost, but probably less then 5k$.
