Metal body master key shell

[DuckLN]

You know Im in for three - fleabay keys and the ones you can order from across the pond are weak sauce stirred with a touch of low quality like you would expect from daimler chrysler.

WOW! cool. I just talked my electrical engineer at work for ideas to work around the shielding problems created by a metal case. You guys got me excited enough to take a stab with some concepts and CAD models. It was the worst feeling to be on Rollin Pass and have my key start to crack. I already almost got stranded another time back here in jersey when another key completely failed and came apart. To be continued!!!......

Just ordered a flea bay with transponder for $65. Sent email to infinity key letting him know 35 of us are traveling hundreds (thousands) of miles away and would likely want a spare if he has a Beta of the Inifinity key available for us

They have it made.....but a Honda key got pushed ahead. More we ask faster it will come

My issue with the case wasn't blunt force cracking the case but rather torquing the key over and over in the ignition eventually causing a crack where the blade of the key meets the body. After the tiny crack formed it quickly split wide open when trying to turn the key in the ignition. I don't think those covers would help at all.

Got one of those soft rubber FOBs a year or two ago, and it actually does help reduce the torque some.

Those Eternity Keys do look very tough though.

I checked them out online, looks like a ton of Toyota and Lexus dealers are selling these.

 

[Bomar]

Yes Lexus but they have not released the Toyota key for sale....keep emailing them and hopefully they get it out. Got the key cut today.

 

[Bomar]

Eternity key works great.
