Default Lost keys and alarm key fob, please help

Hi everyone, I need some help. I have a 03 s2k and I lost my keys the other day. The dealership wants to charge me 150 for the key and 100 for the alarm key fob. The car has a stock alarm, some immobilizer with an extra button that I have to press in order to start the car. Is there a way to get around that? I am broke being xmas and all can someone please help. thank you

I have no keys and no remotes, I bought the car used and it only came with one key and remote. Thanks for your reply I will check ebay.

Is there a way to remove the immobilizer completely from the car? I have having problems locating a new key fob for that. The dealerships doesn't even know what I am talking about.

If I remember correctly:

If you have NO keys or remotes, you need to have them reprogrammed by the dealer and it will cost the chunk of change. It's more involved than ADDING another spare set of keys and remotes.

If all keys are lost, you will need a new key cut and programmed to the car by a Dealer. There isn't a way around it. You'll be buying a key, and paying to program.
