What was needed to make it work? In another thread you said it came in two parts and you didn't have part of the key yet. Do you have the complete '05 key working now?

ibfubar2000 the pics did not show on the reply. I think I get it what it is and it sounds good and an excellent idea. I paid $27 to have an extra key made so I would guess the retractable would be near $50 for the set.

do you only need the key code that came with the original key to have them programmed? Is there a refund ploicy in place should we get the key via mail and it doesn't work? I'm very interested in this.

The Miata and MPV have the retractable key now..although they remain a "immobilizer" curcuit.

that makes sense the keys probably also have diferent grooves and perhaps sizes too.

ok just to clarify everything. this is not a group buy. anybody can buy 1 or more keys.
keys are $150.00 includes 1 uncut key with remote. two seperate packages they snap together to make 1 retractable key with built-in keyless entry rmote.
If you are local to Cerritos, Ca. then we will cut and program your key and remote for $35.00 if you are NOT local to Cerritos, Ca. then you will have to call your local dealer to see how much they will charge you to cut and program the key and remote.
I will make shipping within the USA $5.00 if out of USA then PM me for shipping prices.
Im not sure if the key will work with cars out of USA im guessing it will but I am not going to promise it.
keys have to be prepaid and ordered approx. wait time is 2-3 weeks after payment is recieved you will get the keys.
I hope this clarifies any confusion.

2) anybody can cut the keys, I just always recomend a certified Mazda Dealer.
but yes they can be cut at home depot or walmart or any key cutting place. but they have to be programmed at a dealer. I dont think anybody owns a WDS. but who knows? I do not recomend trying it yourself.
