Unfortunately the keys WILL NOT start your car until you take your car and the keys to a locksmith ($125) or the dealer ($300) to have the anti-theft chip programmed.
The ad says "Easy programming at home, no dealership hassle!" but it's not true unless you want to open the door, but not drive the car.
Buy Keyless Entry Remote Fob Clicker for 2006 Toyota RAV4 With Do-It-Yourself Programming Now
This product worried me when I was trying to figure out whether or not it was the correct key. I took it to Ace Hardware, Home Dept, Lowes, two local locksmiths, and none of them had the machine that could fit the key due to it's large push button handle. I finally found a locksmith that had the correct machine and $5 later I was ready to program it. Programming was a piece of cake and took no longer than 5 minutes. Just follow the directions. Key works great! Ordering a second one now for my wife.I've received the ordered product.I've cut the key to specs as instructions said
I've programmed the open/close remote control and it does not work (I followed the instructions carefully to ensure I wasn't making a mistake). Don't know what to do with the key now.
To make matters worse the key does not start the ignition. It fits the key hole, does start the stater motor, but the main engine doesn't kick in afterwards

This key may work fine in other cars, but it lacks the internal chip required to start the ignition. I wish they had been clearer about it in the description, because I'm out $44! It's probably a great product if you don't need that chip, just check before buying!
