    I lost set of keys for my 2016 TRD Sport Manual. The manual Tacomas have more of a traditional key (physical key) vs the push bottom start smart key it seems the ATs have. All threads I have seen on key fob replacements have been about the smart key for ATs.

    Anyone have advice on an inexpensive replacement for manual Tacoma?

    thanks!!

    Yes the manuals (and SR5s?) have a physical key with an internal transponder that has been programed to your truck. And I've only seen fob covers or full on replacement fob cases by AJT... never an actual aftermarket replacement fob.

    Likely due to the internal transponder

    You still need the original key for the AJT, just get OEM replacement keys. The original keys I actually like, they’re lightweight and fairly small.
