Switchblade key fob

I'm not sure if this is actually a DIY but what the hell eh? I got a switchblade key fob from here ( http://toyotanation.com/forum/showthread.php?t=147654 ) and removed the key blank that it came with. I had an extra key for my bike made and I cut and shaped it with a dremel. Reinstalled it in the fob and it worked.

Thats cool but i wouldnt want that big bulky thing sticking out of the ignition. Cool idea though. I love those swtichblade keys.

That is a sweet idea!!!!!!!

I don't think I want it sticking out of my ignition on my bike either, but, that'll do on my Jeep!! Thanks for the idea!!

The switchblade key fob was originally designed for a toyota key. It comes with a blank already installed. If you want to use it for a different car, or anything for that matter, you will have to shape the key where it fits into the fob. This is what the end of the key looks like.

coolness..

That guy is sold out of those. I wonder if there's anywhere else to find stuff like this.

There are a ton of 'em on eBay.
