Link doesn't work but I actually quite like that........is it as simple as just taking the insides out of the normal key and stick it in there? (obviously also getting the key cut)

[LEX11S]

I asked a while whether it would be possible to build a flip key for the IS200, well here's my answer...

...Like DJ Wozza says, how well strong/sturdy is it compared to the standard key?

[Lexus2D]

I had 1 like that with the hire car i had & found it well usefull keepin the key out the way ;)

But agree on how well made it is but do like it :)

[Rory]

Lots of cars some with that style of key anyway, they must be fit for the purpose? depends who makes these ones for the Lexus

My father-in-laws Polo has one like this, its quite cool, but its quite bulky, ok you save a little in overal length when its folded away, but only a cm or so, and its other dimensions make it fatter and therefore more of a 'pocket annoyance' than the quite flat standard fobs are. Its almost like carrying a 2nd mobile.

cant be much worse than the Lexus ones !

[corsavandal]

sounds like we need a guinea pig

how much does it cost to get a car key cut? might volunteer if its not too much.

[boddamloon]

I think it was Mercedes i first saw with this type of key.

[Steve_D]

I wouldnt mind one of these, one of my keys is super glued together! has anyone bought one?

[corsavandal]

i've not been able to log into my paypal today but will be using my brothers account when i get home to buy one. it say's in the listing that it is as simple as swaping over the gubbings of your existing key then get the blade cut. im not sure what the cost is for this but hopefully wont be too expensive.

[Rolex]

Ordering mine today and i will get it cut on the weekend i will report back soon.

You're actually probably right on this one - except for the fact that the blade is folded and can't jab at things, it does look quite large. If you look at the section in the middle where the key innards would sit, and then how much is in front and behind it, this thing actually looks larger than the original key!

Oooooooooooo j'aime :)

[corsavandal]

where will you be getting it cut Rolex? i called acouple of key cutters and they all said the couldnt cut it!?

[DJ Wozza]

I'd have to agree.

Looks about the same size as an IS250 fob tho.

[Rolex]

i spoke to toyota Bristol and they said that they order there keys in pre cut but that there was a company in bristol called GEM Security, once the key arrives i will take it down to get it cut. if its all good i will report back and those who need theirs cut can send me their spare and i can get it done. if it all goes pete tng we will know that is des not work.........simply as that

[corsavandal]

cheers mate

[DJ Wozza]

Well done Mr. Guinea Pig :D

[Vyker]

i like the idea of this, would like to know how sturdy it is, like the others.

i noticed at the bottom of the Ad, it says special price for 50 units order...

Maybe a LOC group buy?

[corsavandal]

could an admisitrator say how many active IS200 owners/users there are? and would they do an email kind of mail out offering it as 50 would be a hell of alot to get on board.
