huh. that's queer.
The fob for my mercedes is programed by the car.
meaning anyone with a blank fob can get in my car, put it in the ignition, and have the key re-configured to the car.
I was worried about theft that way, as you can pick a blank fob up on e-bay pretty cheap. But then I realized, with the doors locked, they'll have a hard time.
There is a metal key, but only one spot on the door to insert it, and if it gets frozen in the winter, your screwed.

Now I only have one spot for a key on my door as well. Screw you beard boy! I meant only one spot on the door as in: there is only one spot, on the drivers door, and that's it for the whole car. I swear, as soon as you get your single finished, Ima smoke you with my 13Ts just to show you who's boss.

What ever my car could be out this weekend if I wanted. Your going to need some bigger injectors if you want those 13Ts to even see my bumper.
