Cost of replacing car key?

    Hi all. I have a Nissan Almera and one of the keys is FUBAR. Have to have 2 keys, unfortunately, and trying to find out how much, roughly, it'd be to get a replacement or get the one I have fixed. Can't find anything online that'll actually tell me how much it costs to get a key cut/repaired. Issue is that the buttons don't work for opening/locking the doors. Key itself is otherwise fine. Have replaced the battery but no joy. Also switched the battery from the working one into the not working one just in case the new battery I'd bought was faulty/wrong/whatever but no joy with that either.

    Any help is much appreciated!

    Think this is the guy that my brother used, he's cheap and I think nissan keys are quite easy to do normally the rubber just wears down

    Be very very careful here , I paid a guy in meath 180 euro to program another key that I lost Renault make. After he did it , whatever key you use last will only work to lock open doors etc..... The other key , will do that after you open it manually and drive the car , it wil then function like normal , again with the other you have to do the drive thing again before it works like normal. Seems it programs after being used when driven. Sorry I didn't pay another 90 and get Renault to do the job properly. I am now afraid he has fecked up the codes due for service soon. You get what u pay for ��

    Autokey at Newlands Cross beside the Bewleys hotel, used to be at the longmile road junction.
    autokey.ie
    I have used them before, reliable and reasonable on the pricing.
