Programming was easy, took about 10 seconds. I can't believe a dealership would charge 1/2 hour of labor for a 10 second job. Thats a good way to lose customers.
Anyhow, the remote works great and when I went to put in an order for remote for the Millenia I noticed I got free shipping, so I bought a 2nd remote for the Protege and a pair for the Millenia. FINALLY, I will have remotes that work and that I can use.
ThePartsYouNeed.com rocks!

were my instructions helpful?
93Miata said:I found another keyless entry remote site online that I'm willing to give a shot - www.ThePartsYouNeed.com
The stupid KR site wants $49 a piece for the Protege remote, and they're less than 1/2 that price on ThePartsYouNeed site with the instructions included. I ordered 1 this morning.

I'll keep you guys posted. If it works good, I'm going to order one for my Millenia as well.

The one thing I don't like, after reading these instructions, is my impression that the keyless entry system is limited to 3 fobs. I find this suprising, as my previous '96 Camry and current '03 PT Cruiser (wife's) could both take 4 fobs. And the '03 PT Cruiser can take 8 encoded keys.
I'll try 4, and can live with 3, but I'd still like 4...
Thanks!

I'm doubt there is any recourse to get my money back, but at least nobody else gets burned. I found something else odd out today too. On another forum, somebody mentioned that they had pretty badly limited range with their remote, but if they aimed the remote at their chin, they could get the car to lock and unlock from about 80 ft away.
I tried it when I was headed back to my car from the mall today, and it works...lol. Probably will get brain cancer now...but it about triples the range.

Chiguy_2002 said:When I got My MSP a bit over a week ago, it came with two keys, two fobs. One fob was much newer than the other, but both work just fine. How many is a MSP supposed to come with? Now if I run through the programming steps with the two fobs I have, those will be the only two fobs that work for my car? Just trying to make sure I don't have a third or fourth fob out there that could potentially open my car...Thanks.
i think you can program 4 remotes in the MSP, but it came with only 2 from factory/dealer93Miata said:Is that it...only 2 remotes max programmed together? I thought it was like 3 or 4?
