dislike your plain Toyota key? check my custom flip

So went on eBay a week ago
Ordered a flip case with key for $10..
Opened my old key and transferred the transmitter chip and buttons into flip key case
Cut the new key and was done..
took 10 minutes, pretty basic stuff but feels better personally..

Different seller but same product.. was gonna link it up but I seem to have lost the link and my phone doesn't like going to desktop view on eBay only for some reason.. so couldn't put proper link on..

But yes that's the one basically I remember it as a paw print shape key pad :happy0180:

Children of the 80's will appreciate this one. If they can make a Voltron key for the 86 I will pay you all my money

Saw your diy.. lot of effort put in.. um no we don't have panic..maybe gts does but my gt86 doesn't.
I love flip keys, was disappointed when they first gave me my old skool keys, lock smith asked "keys for a 90's hilux? Yeah $15".. I said no for the gt86, don't ask, thought they would actually get with the times..

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

It's a Toyota I can believe it. My old Lexus key was the same as all 00s Toyotas only difference was the L on the back.

GTS doesn't have a panic button either.

draggin_az 09-20-2012 06:42 PM

the whole panic button must be a USA thing. i blame the gov for in-stealing fear into everyone. i dont if y'all know micheal moore is but he did a documentary on it.

I think all new 86 owners should be presented with the key to their new car in this manner.

I have seen some Lexuses with a panic button but not any Toyotas in Aus.

thats weird. every car (including the base model chevys) have a panic button. no one uses it as a panic more like a car finder in the mall parking lot.
