The 05 Retract key
 
Just picked it up today it cost me $46.70 and that's with them setting it up for my 04. I was thinking i was gonna pay around $150. That's what i was reading on the club.

No i don't have a digital camera. But i will tell you what it looks like: it's about 2.5 inches long,all the door buttons are on it and then the silver button. you press it the key pops out (bad .......) as far as keys go

The price sounds right for just the key portion of the key but not the remote portion.

the key is connected to the remote

If they are selling it for thatmuch I suggest you buy a ton of them and sell it here on the boards!

The key and remote are 2 seperate pieces that connects together and supposedly sells seperately. They probably made a mistake.

The key I saw at the mazda dealership a few weeks ago that was for the 2005 models was a completely different type/style of key than what your showing on here.
It reminded me of the VW key. A small box/rectangle with a button you push and the key flips out from the side, not in and out like a stiletto.

If it were a VW-style key with the unlock/lock buttons on it (1 piece) i'd buy it in a heartbeat.

You should buy one! It's much better than the 04 key

It is. I used to drive an Audi A4 and other than minute differences, the concept is the same.

See the key on my site.

hmmm... :rolleyes: I wonder if they'll ship!

Yeah, unfortuneately they screwed up. I placed and order with them yesterday and I was quoted at 50 bucks for the key and the transponder, they were supposed to cut it (using my vin number) and send it to me today but I just got a phone call from the guy and he said that there was a mix up and the key itsself was 50 bucks, the remote is an extra $170. Guess it was too good to be true.... :(
