1 KEY 1 Remote ?

When we got my daughters car (04' RX8) we only got one key and one remote. Now after reading all the posts, can I get an extra key/remote without having to go back to MAZDA Dlr. Everything I read say I have to have 2 working keys before I can program in an extra. Is that for real or can I do it with just one key? I see the key with the chip for less than $20 bucks and a remote I can pick up of alot of different web sites. Have any of the guys/gals out there done this? Any information would be helpful!
Thanks Gang

yeah need to have the dealer do it. you can't program it without the 2nd one. but by the key/fob where you saw it because the dealer will charge a ridiculous price for them.
