Looks like my choices are either $130+ at OEM parts site or Chinese junk for ~$28. Anything I'm missing, or is that about the run of it?

Perhaps a used OEM fob on Ebay and get it programmed?

I appreciate the suggestions. I didn't even think to check eBay, and it looks like there are a lot of options there.

I would feel much better going with a used OEM vs a knock off that might be hit or miss. We probably won't have this ride much longer, or I would splurge for a replacement from the dealer. Tired of using two half working fobs, though.
