I replaced a fob and had it programed for $75.00. If you already have a working one you can program the new one yourself quite easily. But you have to have one that works and use it to program the other one.

This is from the repair manual:

STANDARD PROCEDURE - RKE TRANSMITTER
PROGRAMING

The following procedure can be used as long as one
functioning transmitter is available:(1) Using a functional key fob transmitter, unlock
the vehicle and disarm the Vehicle Theft Security
System.
(2) Insert ignition key into the ignition switch.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to RUN position without
starting engine.
(4) Using a functional key fob transmitter, press
and hold the UNLOCK button for a minimum five
seconds (maximum ten seconds).
(5) While still holding UNLOCK button, and
before ten seconds passes, press the PANIC button
and release both at the same time. A single chime
will sound to indicate that the transmitter programming
mode has been entered (allow 3 seconds for
chime to sound).
(6) Within 30 seconds of the chime, press and
release the “LOCK” and “UNLOCK” buttons on the
transmitter at the same time. Then press and release
any button on the same transmitter and a chime will
sound after successfully programming the transmitter.
(7) Repeat steps 5 and 6 for all transmitters that
will be used with this vehicle (up to 4 total).
(8) Turn ignition to the OFF position. Transmitter
programming mode will discontinue after 60 seconds.
All transmitter programming must be completed
within time specified.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TRANSMITTER
SYNCHRONIZATION
The following conditions can cause a transmitter
and module to be out of synchronization:
² Depressing a transmitter button while disconnecting
the vehicle battery or power to the Body Control

² Pressing both transmitter for five seconds or
longer when out of range of the vehicle
² Pressing the transmitter button more than 255
times when out of range of the vehicle
² Disassembling the transmitter, followed by reassembling
it and pressing the transmitter buttons
more than 10 times when out of range of the vehicle.
The transmitter and module can be synchronized
by holding both the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons
down for a period of 5 to 10 seconds. The module will
acknowledge a successful synchronization by commanding
a horn chirp. Normal transmitter function
will return.
