Mind you the key blade is an extra item which needs to be cut specifically for your IS F. See empty slot below at bottom.

Nice! Thanks Flipside. It looks very rich, do you keep it in your wallet, or just pocket like the orinal isf key?

Rob

Yeah that sounds about right. 4 to 5 credit cards in thickness.

Actually I don't have one, the one's in the photo belong to 2IS member "Pocky", but yes, he leaves it in his wallet. My other friend Tommy - "Lexus GS3" has the same card for his 3GS. He leaves it in his wallet. You can leave it in your pocket if you wish as well.

Pretty soon we'll have a chip embedded under our skin and we can drive naked

Com on guys, is keeping the key fob in your pocket so tough

Is this something we really need

It's more novelty than anything else. I don't think it's worth the $300.00 premium as the key is said to be a one time use only. Once it's programmed, it cannot be reprogrammed again. No thank you.
