    Did I miss the drop of a new batch of white fobs? I’ve checked the website religiously but didn’t see any changes.

    I’ve got to think with all that is going on in the world producing new products has got to be just about impossible. We probably just need to be patient and go buy more TP.

    At this point I'll just be happy if it's released before my 2020 is eligible for antique plates. :pout:

    Save that government check you are going to get for when he updates. There is a going to be a load of stuff in inventory.

    As for the Flip Key, Thank you @MESO for the adjustment that was needed. That small detail probably was going to drive 99% of the people crazy. Happy to wait for the quality.

    So how much do yall think getting a blank key cut would cost? You'd have to go to the dealership for that right?

    The key I'd think you can get cut anywhere. It is programming the transmitter that I assume will be the expensive part. If you don't have your own TechStream to do it I'd guess you'll have to go to a dealer.

    I assumed we would be able to stick the old components in the new fob

    Oh I thought a while back it was said the components from the regular key don't fit in the flipfob and that it would come with hardware already inside ready to be programmed. Maybe I'm remembering wrong. @MESO?

    the internal electronics from your stock fob swap right over. I think you will need to get the new key cut.

    I know it works that way with the current non-flip fob, but thought there was something in the design of the flip that made it so it didn't fit. I hope this is true as it would save quite a bit of money of course!

    all you need to do is get the new key cut. All internals swap over for the flip key
