PT Cruiser key question

Wish I could tell ya, but I don't know. Maybe they thought it would
have a negative impact on security of the system.

 

I'm not talking about the remote, I'm talking about the Sentry security
key. Which has no replaceable parts whatsoever.

 

Smaller- but still stupidly big. I HATE modern car keys with big fat
heads holding transponders or remotes. A simple brass key is SO much
more convenient and so much easier to carry on a keyring.

 

I started the thread.
So we are all on the same page....

Here is a link to an auction for a key without the transponder that is
used in my 2006 PT Cruiser

I'll tell ya what. I'll take the stupidly big key. I offers theft
protection plus
a discount in my auto insurance premiums.

Can you say that for the simple brass key??

Given the actual size of an RFID tag, there's no need for such a
ginormous head on a transponder key.

 

Doesn't make squat of a difference on my insurance, and auto theft is
just not an issue around here. Especially not our PT cruiser. Gimme a
key that fits in my pocket.

Besides, there's NO reason that a transponder/security key HAS to be as
big as a hockey puck. It could be much smaller, as is the case with the
keyless ignition transponders that fit in a wallet.

 

This was what I bought. I don't think it is all that big.

That's why you will feel your gonads tingle every once in a while for no
apparent reason.

 

That's done using homotrons.

 

Its smaller than the dumb things with the integrated remote keypad, but
compared to THIS:

its enormous. And yes, yours is exactly the same as my wife's PT key.
