You likely will need to get a factory key and have it programmed, get the key blank from the dealer and have a locksmith cut and programed.
I've encountered problems with aftermarket blanks.

Only reason I commented is 'cause I monitor alerts for the welcome wagon.
I also have a lot of experience working with automotive locksmiths.
