The keys are electronicaly programed to the cars TWICE unit. You need a good working key in order to activate the TWICEW unit into a mode to start programing more keys. So if you dont have a working key to get the TWICE into the programing mode you will need a new (or used) TWICE unit. The new unit comes with 2 new transponders that are already activated to that unit. If you bought a used TWICE unit that has its transponders already with it, you could have that installed and reprogramed and it work fine.I have done many that way. A good source for a used unit would be GOLDWING, they are a site sponser,1-800-SAAB-137. The dealer is correct in saying that if you lost the keys you will need a TWICE unit with transponders that are already programed to it. Its all done for theft reasons, if someone "hacked" your TWICE unit and stole your car you would be upset wouldnt you?
