Another view. Your key pad goes in and all you have to do is get it cut.

Very cool key mod....

For $35, yup I would get one...

Can you say Audi key...

I've always hated the keys poking a hole in the bottom of my pocket and this key surely prevents it.

I was wondering the same on the back cover. Hmm a sticker I dunno. Would be sweet if it had that coper logo on the back. Whats a price estimate to get it cut at the dealer? $50-60 more?

Lexus original key has the blade (metal part) embeded in the plastic half shell (the half without the opening for the remote buttons).

For this key, it seems that you have to have your key cut by a locksmith and move the electronics from original to the new.

I've always liked this Audi/VW style -- I'd like to have one, but I do wonder what the final cost would be.

Many years ago, the SEAT was a FIAT made in Spain (instead of Italy). I don't know if this is still the case

That one we don't have here, but we do have the Seat Leon, the Seat Leon Cupra model is my favorite, very modern and one sick bastard on the track, we get a few of them show up every week at my 1/4 mile track, http://www.seat-mexico.com.mx/nseat/...020100,00.html
