It's Aus we give no f**k for a panic button. Someone tries to rob us we will either glass em with a spare beer bottle we have in the car or hand them the key LOL.

As in a mouse dragging the key out of a hole who then gives it to a beautiful princess who in turn gives you the key. :wub:

I want everything to be handed to me like that.

Hmm I ordered one of these flip keys on ebay not realising the GTS doesnt need a flip key. I'll probably put it back on ebay when it arrives.

ditto on the panic button, I definitely only use it as a car finder feature since amongst the hoards of SUVs its sometimes daunting to find smaller cars.

I bought one last night. pity I didnt wait. Could have saved you the hassle.

Anyone want a flip key.I have one I don't need so I am happy to negotiate on price. Let me know in the next few days or I'll put it back on ebay.

Loki556 10-03-2012 09:12 PM

Hey Nick, yeah I'll take it.

PM me the price, including the cost of sending it to Brisbane

same here. i cant believe they give us a standard key for these cars.

I interpret the key as being in keeping with the back-to-basics spirit of the cars.

nice one mate! pretty simple by the looks of it.
better than a standard key by far :)

i interpret it that we're buying a base model which is around the same price as a speccd up corolla.

Having said that im modifying one of mine into a flip tonight :)

just wanted to stop by and thank the OP for the idea. I did mine yesterday. Works a treat :)

cheers
