I get conflicting stories about making additional keys for my 2005 Toyota. The Amazon page that sells keyblanks says I can't do it myself, need a locksmith or dealer.
But googling for instructions, I found them, which I can look for and post if it would help here. And that's pretty surprising since the Amazon ad would sell more keyblanks if people knew they could do it themselves, so maybe the instructions don't work.
But then by accident I find these 3 things which all look more or less alike and cost about the same. What do they do and do I need one to make a new key?

It seems to be saying I need this to program a key, but the instructions I copied didn't require this. OTOH, with the Sebring and the Lebaron, it seemed that program a new key required two old keys and they had to be reprogrammed at the same time, so maybe they could all be ruined, and this device makes that impossible, even though this is a Toyota?
