That looks pretty cool. I'm kinda tempted for you to try it out too. Let me know how it goes

If you see the video it seems pretty small actually. Def better than having a key and separate key fob like they are now imo.

I have had one for over a year now. It works great, and always makes everyone look twice.

Really the only bad part about it was that I had to cut up one of my spare keys.

Sweet. Easy to program? Do you take the key out from one of the oem ones or just get that key cut? Does it have trunk release on it?

Looks really cool. I'm tempted to buy if its not to hard set up and it has a button for the trunk.
