EP3 Type R

[Philip Lee]

hell no Philip Lee. I have the pre face lift model (2002) and when i got my keys cut it was a simple grab a piece of metal and copy the original key. No programming needed at all. 14 bucks each key it cost me

btw steve, the copied key can still start the car?

becos the locksmith asked if i'd like to start the car, if not no programming needed.

thanks

take the keys apart and take alook inside hehe

[Philip Lee]

But there is nothing to take apart.

it's just moulded plastic/rubber. no screws or anything.

same here. really nice car to drive about.



let us know how it goes.

Got the exhaust on yesterday, it is actually stupidly loud for the street and i get a lot of annoyed looks + setting off car alarms,
ill either need to get a silencer or a new exhaust
however response is 10 times better and the sound is dam awesome.

well mine is a c package which apparently has factory immobilisor. but the key itself looks to me just like a normal key with no chip inside. i have a seperate remote for locking/unlocking.

my key looks like this (remote is diff):


honestly i was a bit shocked that's why i asked here.

thanks for the comments.

that key has a transponder chip. all FL models have that key. wheres preface are normal keys. transponder keys to be cut at locksmiths are $80-100
