2005 Kia RIO Metal Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
Older Kia models with the standard transponder flip key are some of the fastest key jobs I do. The HY22 lock decodes quick with the right Lishi, the blank is simple to cut, and the immobilizer programming on that generation runs fast because there's no long security timer like Mazda or Toyota. A spare with a working original takes about 15 to 25 minutes.
A shade tree mechanic at the auto parts store near Hope Ranch community had his key snap in the ignition of his 2005 Kia RIO early one morning. Half the blade in the cylinder, half in his hand.
I used my HY22 Lishi to extract the broken piece without damaging the wafers. Once extracted, I decoded the lock and cut a fresh blade from the readings. His car uses a separate remote fob, FCC ID , so the fob was fine. I just needed to cut and program a new ID46 transponder blade through OBD.
He was back on the road in under an hour. Total was 95. Dealer would have charged 200 plus a tow and a multi-day wait.

Fast work, lasting impressions
“We had one broken key for our Honda Civic and one working key for our Lexus. Tim came out and cut three remote car keys at a great price. All keys worked perfectly. Professional, courteous, and highly recommended.”
“Very professional and extremely affordable. The price was literally about three times cheaper than what my dealership quoted me. Fast service and no stress at all. Highly recommend.”
“About 15 minutes after calling, he was already at my home. I had lost my original Ford key and he made and programmed a new one on the spot. Very fast, very professional.”
