Operation: How to overcome the problem of expensive key duplication.

How to duplicate a key - losing the immobilizer function - but saving a lot of money, as getting a duplicate from the dealership costs around 150.00 euros. Let's see how to do it from our friendly YouTuber: Let's make two copies of the key at a hardware store, then take some zip ties, insert the master key as close as possible to the ignition lock inside the plastic box of the steering column (as shown in the video) and the key works. The duplicate key doesn't have a microchip, it doesn't have the code or the immobilizer function, but it works. Additionally, you will have an emergency key always with the car.
