Key Fob Programming???

Key Fob is all messed up, wont lock the doors, wont open the trunk, and barely opens the door. Its apparent I need a new fob. Checked with the dealership and itll cost me over $120 to get the fob and have it programmed. Is there any other way I can get this done without getting raped by the dealership???

Before doing that.. try holding lock + unlock next to the car it will try and sync with the car without doing that ****

Might wanna try and pop it open and clean the contacts in there. Just take a pensil eraser and clean them. Alot of times they will get gummed up and cause problems.
