Step by step guide on how to reprogram an automotive key/door remote for GM Ford and Honda

Yep, you need a tech 2 tool which is like 20 some hundred dollars to program the remote, but it's quick and they should do it for free. Oh and today i went to the dealer to get some keys cut for my aura and i get out of my car and lock it and the one right beside me locks as well. There's like a billion frequencies and i had the same one as the car beside me sooooo when i left i started it. I ordered this Key Fob for my 2008 Mazda 6, a few days later I received the unit and went to a local key shop here in Tucson and had the key cut and the fob programmed for my car. The unit worked perfectly. The local Mazda car dealer wanted to charge me $180.00 for the fob/key unit plus cutting the key and the programming.
