What fordtech92 said. Also check with some of your local locksmiths. They can do the same and some will even come to you to do it. Might be cheaper than a dealer. I had a locksmith cut a key for my boat and it cost me $17.00. And I had no numbers. They had to hand cut it through trial and error once they found the right blank.
