Cost of a new key?
I was wondering if anyone knows what the cost of a new key should be? I lost one somewhere in the house and want a third so I have two on hand. A week ago I asked a service writer and he seemed confident that it was like $230. However, I asked a salesmen and he said about $120. What sounds right? I have a blank to open the doors if I lock the keys in, but not sure if I want to spend $230 for a key. I'll be picking up my JK today after the gas tank is fixed, so I wanted to go in with some knowledge.

You MUST have two keys to program your new third one. I bought one with the transponder in it off ebay for way less than that. Had it cut at a Home Depot. Then programmed it with the included directions.

Oh, so you only have the one? Well, yeah as far as I know the dealership will have to handle it. But you may wanna buy another taking the route I mentioned so you won't have this problem if you lose another.
