Go to dealer. They sell keys for $25 and you get a free cut.
Mine works perfectly

Got mine cut at a Subaru dealer, but that's here in CA. Which doesn't help you much there...

Servco Subaru. Yeah I think it's only $25-30 to have the key cut. It may be more if it has a chip and has to be programed,for our Jeep it was an additional $49 to program them and we had to have 3 keys. Don't know why.

A i-clubber said that Home Depot in Hawaii does not cut keys anymore.

I know Servco Does because thats where she went after getting turned down by Home Depot.

I went thru Servco to get my key cut. Only because they'll pull your VIN and cut your key based on the Key Code from the VIN info. With this, you're insured a good, clean cut- whereas, getting a traced cut of your current key (somewhat worn out teeth)..
