Default Possibly lost my only fully function key fob

I have a valet key in the glove box and plan to call CAA to open the car and use valet temporarily. Called the stealership and they want $200 for new full key and $80 for valet key. My question is, the key fobs on ebay, do they work and are the programmable and how do I get it programmed?? Thanks.

Default I got an eBay key . .

Worked fine! I took it to my local locksmith and they cut it for me - $10. I programmed it myself using the owner's manual in a few minutes - no problem.

But, I had a '99 - no immobilizer. I'm not sure if that will work for your car.

Default Hey Thomas. How's the bimmer ? Which one...I think you said 540 .

Great news...the wife found the keys in my Jeep which is where I thought they were in the first place since I was moving cars at our place this past weekend. Big bender!! thanks for info. I will keep my valet in the house from now on till I get another key.

Default It's very fast, thanks for asking!

2003 M5, Black, with black and aluminum interior. Oh yeah, the M5s are all MANUAL TRANSMISSION! Ha ha.

Sorry to everyone except Gabor who has a manual.
