    Oh yes! That looks OEM. :cheers:

    The smaller one is the Taco, right?

    Sooo, any thoughts on the price delta for the transponder chips? I am checking on cutting and programming.


    Also, I'm betting you have been in deep enough. What's your thoughts about programming with TechStream at home? I need to re-find the threads where some of that was discussed. At this point, I'm a fan of getting the new chip and having three keys.

    The hype is real. I've been stalking my email and the Meso site so I don't miss the drop. I don't think this is healthy for me :der:

    Well. The last time that I remember reading about this, there was talk of needing an antenna. Not here:
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/tacoma-keys.572674/#post-19389763

    I like it and only need to mess with what is in the third post.

    If anyone else is going to try programming at home, I have V14.20.019 working well with an OVT / Tactrix adapter.

    Love it. Looking forward to ditching the stupid fob-key-dongle-pokey-dingus stock key. Another plus is it will match my VW key now!

    Since it's hard to judge demand, maybe it would be a good to do a GB/pre-order so everyone who is interested can jump in and you can order enough in the first batch to keep everyone happy?

    I keep seeing you say M/T or SR only. What about an SR5 with an automatic and no push to start?

    I think I’d be in for a zombie green and game boy purple...

    If they’re ready by then...

    Edit: if they’re on the sale list

    Do y’all ship overseas? My sister is coming in two weeks from the states so maybe I’ll just send it to her.

    Also, can I get the metal piece thing in black instead of stainless steel?

    Thanks.

    @MESO how much more testing is needed before you go into full production for the flip out fob? Been waiting for that one since you put out that sneak peak a while back =D
