More of a what did you do to your key today, but I got my threedom replacement fob, and put it together.

First impressions: overall I really like it. The OEM key is comically big, and that key pops out like a switchblade in your pocket when you twist randomly. I absolutely hated it.

The replacement fob is really small. Think about how small they were when fobs first started coming out, and that’s about the size of this. I hardly notice it in my pocket by itself, and it’s way better on the keychain than the OEM one.

The material feels like your typical 3D printed plastic. If you’ve ever bought something custom 3D printed, you’ll know exactly what I mean. The buttons don’t seem to depress either. You just push on the plastic and it all seems to work okay.

Assembly wasn’t awful except for the RFID chip removal. That thing was a pain. I actually had to hack up the plastic around it to get it out. You can put it back together in the OEM fob, but it sure looks pretty butchered up inside mine. After that, everything easily snapped into the new fob.

Like I said, overall I like it a lot. I’m a little interested to see how the plastic on the fob that lets the keychain loop around it holds up. I’ll report back later if it breaks.

I've been using mine since March and have no issues to report! I really enjoy not having to tote the brick around

Love It!!! It was the first thing I added to my JT.

I did a modification to one of ammo cans to run an ARB Compressor.
I love the argument I see with people stating you loose so much "usable space".. no dumb ass you gain a full 2nd layer of "usable space" I can now put all my tools in the back keep them dry and secure and then place another layer of crap right on top of it and strap it down !

Finished up my front bumper swap from rough country to this Arcus. May never do a winch and as most know, it’s looks pretty awful with a HUGE gaping winch opening. Fabricated a simple diamond plate cover which ended up looking pretty normal. Have some 4” lights coming today I’ll mount to the diamond plate and update.

Basic primer and “bumper” paint from a rattle can. 4 light coats. Called them and was given a perfect match. Message me if you want exact paint brand etc.
