Do have a link for the key blank or a "Keyless Factory" part number?For anyone interested here’s what the blade keys I got on eBay ($13 for 10 keys) look like. I tried putting the key on the ring like Lucky1 and definitely prefer the full blade since I don’t have power locks and need to use the blade every time I unlock my Gladiator. FYSA the keys are cheap but cost $18 a piece to have cut at my local locksmith.
I just keep the “brick” in my pocket and throw my keys in too once I unlock my door. It’ll be nice to have the new fob once it’s available to reduce the pocket bulge.
So for those without power locks, you still have to carry the BRICK just for the push button start?For anyone interested here’s what the blade keys I got on eBay ($13 for 10 keys) look like.

If you press a chip key (or just the tiny RFID chip if you wanted to remove it) against the button, it will start. The fob only gives you the ability to press the button without pressing a chip against it directly.So for those without power locks, you still have to carry the BRICK just for the push button start?
I assume an implant like yours would have to be closer to the finger tip? Would you happen to know how close it has to be to the button?If you press a chip key (or just the tiny RFID chip if you wanted to remove it) against the button, it will start.

It would have to be ultra close, and think it wouldn't work anyway. Mine has different properties than the one in the key chip. To open my front door, I have to flatten the back of my hand to the reader.I assume an implant like yours would have to be closer to the finger tip?

I just searched eBay for “SIP22 key blank” They’re called test keys. How many do you want? I’ve got seven left over and could send you a couple.Do have a link for the key blank or a "Keyless Factory" part number?
Thanks in advance.
Yep, we get to carry the brick since there’s no keyed ignition.So for those without power locks, you still have to carry the BRICK just for the push button start?
Exactly, I’m looking for a silicon key topper so I can fix the rfid chip from the brick to the top of the key blade securely. If that works satisfactorily carrying the brick around will be optional. Once these new circuit board carriers are available having the rfid chip on the key will just be for emergency use.If you press a chip key (or just the tiny RFID chip if you wanted to remove it) against the button, it will start.

Was it hard finding a locksmith to cut this key or can any locksmith do it? Not something that the local big box store could do I suppose...For anyone interested here’s what the blade keys I got on eBay ($13 for 10 keys) look like.

I have a local ACE Hardware that I had cut mine, the other key cutting places im my area can't. These type of keys are becoming common now so most locksmiths should be equipped with the tools to reproduce the blade keys. The locksmiths in my area since Covad 19 are not opening their brick-and-mortar stores and only doing service calls.Was it hard finding a locksmith to cut this key or can any locksmith do it?

Yeah I didn’t even try a hardware store - took it straight to a locksmith. They were able to cut them, but that was the expensive part. I guess I should have asked at the local Ace first!Was it hard finding a locksmith to cut this key or can any locksmith do it? Not something that the local big box store could do I suppose...
