I'd like to build device which would be able to copy key fob. What would be the easiest/best approach?

More details:
My friend is running car rental company and he need some device which would be able to lock/unlock car using mobile phone (GSM module/BT module/whatever wireless). My idea is use Arduino Uno (or sth similar) and copy the key fob.
Car owner would use his key fob to teach the device and then place it in car.
I'd like to avoid buying programmed key and teaching car the new key. That would be way too complicated for car owners.

I simply took my existing 'remote' fob (the type with a flip key) to my local locksmith, he read the transponder code in about 1 second, cloned it to another one, then cut me a standard key (the type with the transponder in it's head) and away I went, tried it and Valla! works fine. This is now currently my spare 'key'

The second action of the remote fob is that once a button to lock and unlock is pressed (this has to be programmed to the cars ECU for it to be recognised) it obviously allows the operation of the central locking AND the disarm/arm of the alarm. This is where we are having issues ( I haven't been looking into it since :eek .

Auto locksmiths have those devices and they can charge nominal fee to program car key.

Yesterday, my car keys were unable to start the ignition, so I took my remote fob to my local
locksmith mableton. He cloned the codes to a new blank and cut me a new key in just 10 minutes.
