Spare key for our Cmax?

I have lost our 2013 Cmax spare key and see a replacement one is very expensive from Ford.
I see this, 3 Buttons Remote Key Fob 434MHz For Ford Focus C-Max, on Ebay and wonder if is is straight forward to program it to unlock remotely and get the key bit cut at local key place?
I still have one key and the code that came with the car.
Or do you have a recommendation for a reasonable key supplier?

Cutting the key easy, my local guy in the market has been there for many years charged me £2.50 to cut mine.
Program the remote unlock easy and free, program it to start the engine = expensive.
£150 - £170 ish. For the key and programming. The code you have is for the key cuts. They can cut a key from that code. Nothing to do with programming it.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -

I believe you can do it using Forscan in which case its the cost of a decent two speed OBDII reader.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0
