Ebay is your friend. You need to look up the EXACT model number printed on the key, since there are so many different kinds.
Wait, are you referring to the physical cut key or the wireless key fob that you can keep in your pocket? Never mind, both are available.
A wireless fob for my daughter's Mazda6 was about $250 complete from the dealer. On eBay, the fob with an uncut key was about $70, and a local dealer charged about $50 to cut and program.
Some non-dealer locksmiths advertise the ability to do the cutting and programming, but a local one we first contacted tried without success.

1010keys on Ebay. The directions they give to program are bad and the dude is a jerk when you ask him a question but I finally got the keys to work after figuring out the programming myself.

Hi Loran, I am in the same situation as you are. I posted the below question on https://www.clublexus.com/forums/rx-...-question.html
Would be interested to know how you sorted it out.
