Default Transponder key

I am new here so I hope I posted this in the right section. Anyways I have an uncut key with transponder chip that needs to be cut and programmed. I don't want to pay dealer prices so does anybody know a good locksmith or shop that does this for a fair price? I am in the Dallas, TX area btw. Thanks.

I'm not sure about where to get the key cut BUT you can actually program the remote yourself after you get it cut.

Just move the key from "just radio" to "all accessories on but engine off" and back quickly for around 3 or 5 times until you hear a chime. Then press any button on the remote and you are done!
