Keyport Slide 2.0
« on: April 15, 2015, 01:55:19 pm »
Came across thus guy at NASIOC Saaberu thread. Major bulk is gone, and I like how light and organized everything feels.


With crappy USD and shipping it came to around 88 bucks, but I guess nothing is fo Freee

I saw that on kickstarter a few years back. Not sure how it works with immobilizer chips.
If the sea was vodka, and I was a duck.
I would swim to the bottom, and drink my way up.
But the sea isn't vodka, and I'm not a duck.
So give me the vodka, and stfu.

Seems like a lot of extra weight and bulk to have on your key chain. What's wrong with a couple of flat, metal keys? Also, 90 bucks? Daaaaaamn, that's a lotta cash for a small perceived convenience.

Plus, how you gonna give a guy the old spicy key chain?

It has attachments and gadgets for immobilizer chips and other things, but it does get expensive if you have to take it to auto locksmiths and stuff . You can send your valet key for them to work with it as well. If it's on board programmable chip then you don't need anything.

I love mine. FXT key in there. The black raised plate on the side houses the immobilizer chip.

Reminds me of the old school "key wallet" my Dad used to carry.



I don't really see the appeal, because I'd rather have each vehicle/function on its own key chain/lanyard...  And it seems like a PITA if you change vehicles.

(Also, it won't fit the Emotional Control Unit from my Aston.   8) 8) 8))I don't own an Aston Martin.
