I have some THREE BUTTON flip keys in. The first to PM me are the ones who have dibs.
I'll let you know when I get more four button ones in so don't PM about those yet (mailbox gets too full).

Price: $20 Shipped
Shipping: USPS

P.S. Those who I had PMed about the thick key blade....I'm sending your replacement tomorrow.

Since so many people want the 4 Button, here is what I'll do. Send me your payment through Paypal and I'll know how many to order that way no one misses out. I can also get some rubber key pads (it'll also come with the regular remote shell) if your buttons are worn down. BTW it seems that my keys are now coming with the SILVER blade instead of that BRASS color blade. Silver looks a lot nicer.

Paypal address: r.karnes@yahoo.com
Please include your username in one of the Paypal boxes so I can PM you with confirmation.

Prices
4 BUTTON = $32 SHIPPED
4 BUTTON WITH NEW KEY PAD = $35 SHIPPED

Remember everything is shipped via USPS Priority Mail!!!

New meaning not faded. Not new as in "new design".

...the frustration continues

remotehub sent a new transponder to replace their original wasn't working.. would program successfully and work once but then would not start the car after that.. this time however neither the flipkey nor my original key will start the car, just turns but never starts..alarm light stays on. I'm afraid that this time the immobilizer has kicked in..HELP!!

I've sent remotehub an email in regards to this latest issue laying out the costs that I've incurred so far and my absolute frustration..

$70.00 Purchase of the original flipkey from you
$140.00 Having original key cut, getting stuck in my igntion & breaking off, and having to have the dealer call a locksmith to remove the broken key.
$5.00 Shipping to return broken key to you
$50.00 Having replacement key cut and programmed
$25.00 Having new transponder programmed
$?? Having locksmith come to me to fix the starter kill so I can get home today

Anyways, I called the locksmith and they will come reprogram the key but there's no guarantee it's going to work.. I do have another car so I left the G35 at work for right now..

I need some advice, if the immobilizer has kicked in is there anyway to bypass it or get my original key to work? I unhooked the battery and am hoping that will do the trick but who knows??

HELP!!

I know you've had the key for awhile, but we decided a while back that the transponder that he sends is no good. I have one of his sitting right next to my computer. Why didnt you use your OEM transponder? OEM transponder works like a charm, although with the immobilizer problems...idk.

The cut can be done for free at Lowes.

I bought the car used and unfortunately it only came with a single Ilco key, which doesn't have a removable transponder. I figured if the new transponder he sent didn't work then I'd return the whole thing and go to mykeyless for a new flipkey.. didn't think i'd trigger the immobilizer as it didn't trigger it previously

Just received my 4 button flipkey from mykeyless-1 on ebay. I haven't had it cut/programmed yet but here are my initial thoughts:

It is HUGE. It is a little thicker than my cell phone (LG Dare). It is similar in size to 1.66 containers of Glide dental floss placed end to end.

It feels CHEAP. Maybe I'm picky, but this doesn't feel anywhere near the quality of say a VW flip key. The body feels very plasticky, the flip mechanism itself feels hollow and jerky, as opposed to solid/fluid. Removing the little pin to get the blade itself detached was a pain in the *** and revealed that the slot in the blade to hold it into the base was not actually cut straight but at a slight angle, very hokey. The blade itself does not sit totally flush in its mount -- i.e. the centerline of the blade does not quite match up with the centerline of the fob.

It has an empty nissan logo outline imprinted onto the back, and it did not include an additional sticky infiniti logo.

Ok. With all that said, what was I expecting? Well to be honest not much (I did know it wouldn't feel as solid as the VW key, but I can hope, right?), so it's not like I can leave the guy negative feedback. The uncut blade fits into the ignition ok (although inserting it button-side up is a little trickier due to the slightly weird angle of the blade). It did come with some ugly/relatively confusing instructions on how to program the remote portion which seems to work just fine.

So I will probably try and get this cut and have the transponder programmed tomorrow. We will see how that goes.

Yeah that is the first kind made. I had that one except in three buttons. Once mykeyless-1 reorders he will get the new ones in. The new ones actually have a rubbery coating as though their is a silicone jacket on it. Also the key blade for the new ones is silver color and not the cheap looking brass.

Overall quality of the new one is two to three times better than the first flip keys. Still not like a VW or Audi.

Probably would have ordered from you, but needed the transponder/remote as I didn't have any spares =)

^^^Oh yeah...thats aight because those combos are a good deal. I cant manage to find remotes cheap enough to do that.

Let us know if the transponder works. None of our ebay transponders worked after about a day or so.

Understatement! Btw, I'm expecting a locksmith anytime now to reprogram my Ilco key, keeping my fingers crossed. Although I haven't minded driving my 330ci while the G has been immobilized
