are the bike keys the same as the cars?

anyone got any suggestions?

[kcokla]

what you could do, is get the new type r key's with the big plastic part, open it, get the original key and place the top part inside /some cutting may be required. and youll have avery cool looking key,

key bling, what next?

[TheSaint]

im just sick of the shitty peice of crap that i have for a key ... now that i have done up the car it doesnt really match

it looks like its for an old beaten up 4wd

[m3ntAL_l2]

long as they are the same size, thickness and width etc... dnt c why it wont work... and the key does not have a immobilisers chip in it so just get it cut

saint -

yes

open tha tup, and take the rubber off your existing key and place it inside with the actual turning part petruding out obviously!
and perhaps some glue or screws etc to secure it in plcae!

[m3ntAL_l2]

this is how the inside looks, so think u need to drill a hole on ur orginal key then secure it with the screw

$30 for the type-r part and $5 for the replacement original key

i think its worth it =)

[kcokla]

perhaps you could get a small file and file a slit for it, and then when taking the rubber off your existing key, slot it in and then use silicon to secure it inside and then put the cover back on

good luck!

ive wanted to do this for sometime actually. just unfortunately havent gotten around to it.

from memory. JDM cencept sells those key things!

[egb16b]

yes do diy.. i wouldn't mind doing this as well..and i still have all 4 original keys so got plenty to stuff around with lol

oem eg key looks gay!

[WA-EG]

let me know how you go man. I just got a plain key and would like something flash. Wonder if you could incorporate the button for an aftermarket alarm.....

[TheSaint]

i dont think the part i got has a button in it ... not sure

thats an awsome idea tho ... ill look at converting it when i get it here =)
