[W126 Coupe] do the ignition keys for these cars have to made at the dealer or

[Edward Chin]

The old keys aren't actually laser cut.that's just propaganda.  Anyway, the
prices are all over the board, from Shin's $17 to $100+.  They used to make
them only in Germany, but they may have moved the machines over here now.

 

My spare cost me $35 at the dealer.

 

Regards,

 

Edward

Because it's laser-cut, most locksmiths can't make it. I just had mine made
by a MBZ dealer. I needed to show the registration and a driver's license.
It was made at a central location in Texas and took two days and it was
expensive $17
