Got new ones for my C900 from Western, next to nothing. They are just metal though, no alarm fob etc. Old Skool.

You have to buy the fob (About £30), and the actual key (£21 - has to be ordered from Sweden as it's laser cut) then you need it coded which is also baout £30 so you looking just over £80

I got a replacement this time last year for my 1999 Saab 9-3. Was told by local specialist to go to main dealer because new key has to be laser cut by Saab in Sweden. They then programme the electronics. Total cost at Ballards in Finchley North, London was £80 or £90. Took twenty minutes once the new key had arrived with them. Seems reasonable value because if you lose the keys its mega money for new ECU etc.

New key is quite nice because instead of having a separate fob you get three buttons on a single key (lock/unlock/boot unlock)

Good luck with it.

My key has the alarm components built in, and it will cost around £105 at my dealer for the key and the time for them to reprogramme the new key.
