DreRX8 12-22-2004, 02:45 PM EXCELLENT NEWS!! that you are carrying them
truemagellen 12-22-2004, 03:01 PM one thing to point out...you need to have two working keys to do this (two of the main keys not a Valet key)
JMD RX-8 12-22-2004, 03:22 PM one thing to point out...you need to have two working keys to do this (two of the main keys not a Valet key)
Actually, that is not entirely correct. You can program a key using a main key and a valet key. When I bought my 8 the dealer couldn't find one of the main keys, so the ordered me a new one. They cut it when it arrived and i programmed it myself using the main key and the valet key that came with the car. I used the same technique - 5 seconds in on position with 2 good keys, then 5 seconds with the new one.
philodox 12-22-2004, 03:26 PM Yeah, programming it yourself will save you $150. Well, at least at my dealer, they want to charge 1.5 hours of labor for 10 minuts of work.. haha
Oh yeah, I have the '05 key and it works fine with my '04

Hou-TX-RX-8 12-26-2004, 03:17 PM Do these come with the alarm fobs as well?? Is the picture on your site a picture with the extended and the key retracted, showing the other side of the fob?
truemagellen 12-26-2004, 03:23 PM Do these come with the alarm fobs as well?? Is the picture on your site a picture with the extended and the key retracted, showing the other side of the fob?

truemagellen 12-26-2004, 03:23 PM here you go :) http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=48182
Hou-TX-RX-8 12-26-2004, 09:51 PM Thanks for the info...
When I ship Il send the Mazda install instructions for both the Key and the Transmitter.
I can tell you that the Mazda Dealers that tried to install the new key and faild did not wait long enough for the car to read the new key. The thef light will blink for a while when it is programming the new key.. Dont give up it may take a Min or so. In my car it took over a Minute for the thef light to stop blinking before I could remove that key.
my10ae 01-02-2005, 10:39 AM OK... either I'm losing it or does the key fob incorporate the key? I guess the easiest way to ask is, does the key retract into the remote fob a la VW/Audi keys? If so, sign me up! :D Also, how do I become a gold member?
I think this will look sweet along with my rotary key and leather case :) Actually now that I think of it, I think this new fob will fit my leather case that stores my rotary key. The '04 style fob's did not fit.
Thanks guys...

If the person gave you multpile CC's, watchout for the CC scams from over seas. I am sure you know about them, but be careful nonetheless.

Thew's been updating his site lately and there have been a few minutes of downtime...PM if there is still a problem after you try now.
RX8 XTC 01-17-2005, 10:56 AM its still not working ill just have to wait for some time i gusse THanks Truemagellen For the Help :)
The new key fob is great! Had I known what I was doing, I could have programmed the key and the fob in about 5 minutes (and I have a very early '04 RX8). The trick with the fob programming is the button in the instructions is the button on the sill that senses the driver's side door being closed. Many thanks to Thew and Alphapenguin for their help!
RX8 XTC 01-23-2005, 07:11 PM it just workd now for me nick name is RX8_XTC can i be gold now ?
truemagellen 01-23-2005, 07:42 PM it just workd now for me nick name is RX8_XTC can i be gold now ?

RX8 XTC 01-23-2005, 11:35 PM quick Question Do i get LIKE (( 1 )) KEY (( 1 )) FOB OR i get 1 KEY and 1 FOB + a Spare ??
its what u see.. the Key and Transmitter(fob) .. 2 parts make one unit.. i Sell it as one unit.
RX8 XTC 01-24-2005, 03:35 AM HMmM so you are saying am only getting 1 unit ?? so if I wanted a Spare key ill have to get 2 of them ?
aaymax 01-26-2005, 03:00 PM Do the new key fobs work on Canadian RX8s? Do you ship to Canada?
GrRx8MaZdA 01-27-2005, 08:34 AM Well today i took my key..Thanks Matt.
Here are two pics with my key+key chain combo!!!Niiiice :cool:
Just remember when the key gets cut.. dont give it to them with the Transmitter part attached. Inside where the key folds you will see a small button.. push that and you can pull the key off the transmitter for cutting..
Well today i took my key..Thanks Matt.

anthger 01-31-2005, 11:25 AM Can i program the Rx8 retractable key on my custom alarm installation?
I have the 2003 RX8 5SM Japan specs (210HP)
truemagellen 01-31-2005, 11:31 AM Can i program the Rx8 retractable key on my custom alarm installation?

that depends on your alarm system...if it can learn the 05 key's signal
anthger 01-31-2005, 12:24 PM How can i know if it can ler the 05 key's signal?
that depends on your alarm system...if it can learn the 05 key's signal
i think the answer is yes.. but if not.. like the ones i am selling to Singapore they can use the remote fob but they have no imobilzersystem..
anthger 01-31-2005, 11:16 PM Well my alarm system is the Fusion F2000 alarm and i also didnt install the imobilizer system on the car!!
So you think that it should recognize the car alarm signal so i can programn it on it?
i think the answer is yes.. but if not.. like the ones i am selling to Singapore they can use the remote fob but they have no imobilzersystem..
well it should still open your doors... but thats a guess
GrRx8MaZdA 05-05-2005, 11:11 AM I have this key and i can't make the immobilaizet to work...The US frequencies seem to don't work in European 8s...How can we make this work???
Chris if the RF works the Imobizer should..
but you may not have waited long enoguh when programming it .. IT took my car over 4 mins to find the kkey and accept it into the imobilizer system.. However aside from that it is designed for a USA spec car.
