Replacement spare key for 2010 RAV4?

[kissinger]

I bought a 2010 RAV4 recently, but it only has one key. I’d rather not pay dealership prices for a replacement spare. Is there a cheaper way to get one? 
 

From what I can tell you can get a cut key online that you can programme at home, but would that be for both the remote locking and immobiliser, or would I need to get the immobiliser done at a garage?

Try either an auto locksmith or Timpsons.

I will, but eBay seems to sell cut keys that you can program yourself that are a lot cheaper than even a Timpsons. Are they best avoided?

Your choice. There are variety of key programming methods available on the internet, but whether they work for your particular model may be a risk.

North east Birmingham. i have used them for keys that weren't to advanced and they were fine . They used to offer a mobile service, may still do.

Otherwise try Timpsons.
