Is there a chrysler / dodge / jeep skim transponder key (uncut) shop in Los Angeles I should use instead?
Most Los Angeles shops don't keep the bench equipment for chrysler / dodge / jeep skim transponder key (uncut) — they'd forward the module to a specialist anyway, which adds a markup and a middleman. Going direct to us is usually faster and cheaper. Cross-country west — about 2-3 days each way.
Does California vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
California requires a biennial Smog Check emissions inspection in most counties through the BAR program. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all California and federal requirements.
Do I lose my existing keys?
No. We add the new transponder to the SKIM; keys that work today keep working. If you want a lost key removed so it can never start the vehicle, say so on the order note and we will drop it.
Is the blade cut?
Not on this option — the key ships with an uncut blade so any locksmith or hardware store can cut it from an existing key, or from your lock. If you have no cut key at all, order the $150 cut + programmed key and put your driver's door lock cylinder in the box; we decode it and cut the blade to match.
