    The frequency on the remote is burned on to the chip. The Brain can only accept one frequency to be programmed in.

    Okay, so I ordered one set with the key and one set with the fobs.

    Is is possible to changed the coding on the remote so I can have a key and fob remote for each car?

    My other car is an E24 and I wasn't sure the key would fit. I checked this morning and it fits in the ignition.

    Does anyone have pics of installation?

    Just a heads up. I'm working with the key manufacturer to make sure this problem does not happen again. Every kit will be personally checked in my ignition prior to shipping out to make sure you won't get a bad pair of blanks.

    It appears that the veins on the blanks are a hair to close together. All current orders will be verified and corrected prior to shipping out. For those who have already received their kits I can email you a prepaid postage label so i can fix the blanks you already had cut if they do not fit in the ignition. I apologize for any inconvenience.

    Ok, so I took it back to the lock smith and all is well.
    The cut was fine, it was indentations on the key that stopped it from going in the ignition tumbler.

    To remedy the problem, my locksmith had to grind away from the indentation on the key.
    In other words, the angle of the indentation that runs across the key was not acute enough of an angle and the excess material was stopping the key from going inside the tumbler.

    Take it back to the locksmith and have him make adjustments until it works in the ignition. Hopefully he copied a good original key and not another worn out copy.

    I had a locksmith cut my key and it works great on the doors...
    but when I tried it in the ignition, it would not go in.

    Has anyone had this problem before?

    Havent installed the unit yet, but I am sure it will work great.

    Not sure if some ignitions are tighter than others or if some of the keys are thicker than others. The ignition cylinder is definitely a tighter fit than the trunk or the doors and has more lock pins. Let me grab another car and check the fitment.

    The one that the fobs were tied to is the antenna. The one off to the side (which is typically red) is for other applications like mercedes.
