I've had mine attached to my keyring since I got it, and it's been just fine so far. You have to use a really small metal ring (that you then attach to a keyring), I think I mentioned that I picked one up at a craft shop for $2.00 (actually a whole bag of them). You're right, the little...

The dealership cut both of my keys for free, I read reviews of the local dealerships and picked the one with the best reviews... so maybe they're a particularly good dealership. If the dealership won't cut it for you for free I'd just as soon go to a locksmith and get it cut for $2.00 (but not...

Just a word of caution for folks who are thinking about drilling for the panic button. Because the button won't be recessed at all, it'll be easy to hit, especially when you're turning the car on or pulling the key out of the ignition. The first few times I used the key I kept accidentally...

I didn't ask for anything special at all, I ordered from the link I posted in the first message, a week later I got the remote in the pictures above, there was no problem with fit at all. I found an eBay link to a similar (though much worse) product that was also listed for a Mazda6: As you...

It came with everything you see at the top of the first picture I posted, so it includes the lower part, the upper part, and an uncut blade. The middle item in the top photo is what it looks like when everything is done, the lower part of the photo shows what your old key looks like after it's...

I'm pretty sure you're talking about something else, you can't find these on eBay and the buttons aren't flimsy because you're using the buttons from your old remote (as you can see from the pics below). I've only had mine for a day and it doesn't seem flimsy to me... none of the other folks...

Sorry guys, the first link I posted at the top got destroyed... I guess it's not cool to post links to other Mazda forums? Here are the pictures from that thread: Those aren't my pictures, but my pics would essentially have been identical. There are some additional pics from another...

Hi everyone, I'm a new Protege5 owner, and while I love the car, I was disappointed to read that there was no workable option for a switchblade remote keyfob. I did a ton of searching, and hit upon a solution that should satisfy most people: There's a Chinese seller on Alibaba.com that sells...
