I have several new-ish (2011+) Nissan cars that need key work (more keys/removing lost keys). All have the new proximity key (with the slide-out door key).

From my searching it seems that the only way to do this is with special equipment, but it seems that the equipment is available to locksmiths.
I don't want to go to the dealer or a locksmith and spend hundreds of dollars for each key.
How might I go about finding this type of programming equipment?

You need to post the exact make and model to get any help on programming. Some if not most cars don't need special equipment if you have at least one working key. Buying the programming equipment will be at least several hundred dollars. – Larry♦ Jul 27 '12 at 20:33
If you are in the US, Wal-mart can program some vehicle keys. You would have to check with them about which makes and models. – Nick Jul 28 '12 at 15:17
