Need to duplicate or replace car keys & remote? Here are 4 recommended shops

Have you ever left your car key in your pocket and accidentally sent it swimming in the washing machine?

I have. Putting it in a sack of rice to soak the moister after does not work either.

Even though we have a spare key, the shelling I got from my old man was a memorable one. If only I had this list then, we wouldn't have paid over $200 for a brandless flip key replacement.
