sounds about right for a chipped key, ask the dealership for their price

Back in 2002 I think dealers were asking 100 bux. I think other independents ask for less.

Uh, I am asking people who might have had it done and what they paid. Or if they know what a typical locksmith charges to have our keys made.

Sooner has a point... plus why in TF did you post this question here? This is the 5th gen maxima forum. I'm sure you could have found your answer with a little bit of searching.

Sounds like what a dealership would charge. I wouldn't think they would charge you 60 bucks to program it though.
