Have any one try this method and programming there own keys?
STEPS:
1. Begin by sitting in the driver seat with all the doors shut.
2. Insert your working master (black) key in the ignition.
3. Very Quickly, turn the key from "LOCK" to "ON" 5 times. (You will end with the key in the "LOCK" position)
4. Immediately, open and close the driver door 6 times very quickly. (End with the door closed)
5. Immediately, remove your working Master Key and insert your new Master Key
6. Turn the key to the "ON" position and leave it there while you wait for 1 minute.
7. After the minute, if you want to program another key, just remove the first one and insert the next one, turning it to "ON" and leaving it in position for 1 minute.
8. When you are through programming keys, just take the last one out, open and then close the driver door to lock in the programming, and your done

I have the same question.
I've just got the feeling that all I will achieve by doing this is having people laughing at me for flapping my door like a birds wing!!!

but if someone has a quiet place where they can try this and confirm it, I'm willing to try. After assigning a new master key, will I need to reinsert the old one, or will it remember it?

in mass, at the woburn mall, i purchased theirs, they cut/copied and programmed using my current original key for less than $50. perhaps you could call them and ask about using your own cut key.
