HI guys,
anyone know of a good 3rd party online source to get a duplicate ignition key for a 2001 ML430 ?

thanks,

A legit key will never be found that way. Some sites and forums claim to be able to copy a key including the RFID chip. I would never trust one of them.

My dealer only charges $160 for a new key and that includes the programming to the truck for the remote functions to work.

So you can spend $75-$150 with a mystery key supplier or spend less than $200 from an MB dealer that will make sure the key you get works perfectly.
If you go to a dealer, bring the truck, proof of ownership and a photo ID. That is the only way a dealer can sell a theft relevant part like a smart key.
