dun know...

 

Everyone's talking about having to have this key programed at the dealer, but in the manual for my IX it tells you the procedure for re-programming a key yourself. As long as you already have two registred keys, you can program the key in a few simple steps.

Anyway, if there is a GB I'm probably in.

 

I think the issue is programming the remote, not the chip in the key.

 

I'm also in for the group buy

 

Base model (ds?) doesn't have trunk. But i think the new eclipse keys are integrated key fob. I will check today about the feasablilty.

 

Can you explain this in a little more detail?

 

what they are talking about is getting the key cut ( copied like u do a set of house keys) and programmed for your keyless entry to work....
what u are reading in your manual is the procedure to program the chip inside your new key to work with your engine immobilizer...
basically you have to program u keyless entry , your immobilzer and get your key cut ..... hope this helps

 

A quick search will throw exactly what you need, it's even a sticky:

It works not only for the IX. If this procedure works for the JDM key, then just cut the key and you're done. The next question would be, do JDM and USDM Evos share the same key shape?

 

delete, for myself not being able to follow the thread

 

i am down as long as the price is right

 

price

 

I am in on the group buy if there is one..pm sent.

 

The new eclipse does have the integrated fob but it won't physically go into the evo's ignition. The groves that run down the side of the key are different.

 

I guess i'm not the only one thinking it then.
