if you get your key cut and they don't fuck it up, skip these steps. |

Good thing I came upon this thread, and now I have made my own.
The flipping mechanism is actually pretty strong and solid on mine, it's almost like a switch blade. Just remember to wind the torsion spring one extra revolution and you should be good. |

I finally got my flip key and I was so excited to do this DIY. The first thing I did was get my key cut. And guess what?! I got the opposite problem that you guys got: he cut TOO MUCH off my blank key. If he cut too little, I could at least trim it down. But there's no saving a key that has too much cut off. What's more is that pin is stuck in my spring ring (the circular thing attached to the blank key). I think the vendor I got it from superglued it in or something. This sucks... This should have been such an easy, but useful, mod. =( |

the pin is in there pretty tight and a bitch to get out. it took a few good wacks before it would budge. |

so the buttons send a signal and the transponder determines which car the signals get sent to?

also, if they mess up cutting your key, why not just purchase one from them instead of grinding the end of the original?

in order to get the correct key with the correct grooves, you'd have to get the more expensive key that comes with a transponder since that key is made for our car. you already fudged up the donor key so why not use that key? |
