Default key

Okay i just rang a Subaru dealer and they wanted $500 for a 2nd key, Im not sure if it has been said before i did search but nothing came up.
There is Subaru keys on ebay for around $49 would it be worth getting one and getting it coded or is that the $$$ part

Thanks

The expensive bit is the key, they are about $400.
depending on the year of your car and model.
what car have you got?

It doesn't say it explicitly but make sure they have the immobiliser bit in them. Look at where the stock key meets the rubber grip & there should be a tiny square.
