Only one key and fob

what are my options if I want a second key. I only got one keyfob when I bought my 2017 trd sport... it’s a manual tranny

Is there a minimalist key fob or anything similar? Where would I buy a new key, etc how much are we talking?

Check Meso.... he's working on exactly that, a minimalist key fob.

 

With a manual transmission, you should have a physical key. So, by key fob, you mean the buttons to lock/unlock the doors, right? Not like the A/T which uses the fob to start the truck. Many places can code a transponder key.

You have


And Not


Right?

 

Yes.... y’all tell me... I am very ignorant in terms of what I have and what I need...

All I have is a key with the door lock and unlock button- and horn

 

Woah, sorry the pics are so huge.

 

Helpful though... just one of the top picture is what I have ... a key

 

Right, a transponder key. Many places can make those for you.

 

Will the minimalist thing work for mine also?

 

No, that's meant for the A/T fob. The manual transmission models still use a physical key, so if you want another key you just need to find a (reputable) place to program one for you. My local farm store offers the service, and I'm sure some independent shop near you can do it too.

I think the farm store near me charges $130 or so?

My problem is this key jabs holes in my pockets sometimes. Wish they had made it fold when not in use like other manufacturer's

 

Check my previous post and cross your fingers. Can’t say for sure.... but there *might* be a solution for that problem in the works.

 

73 pages, any cliff notes, or page numbers of importance?

 

Start somewhere around here where it was discussed. Maybe back 5 or so posts.

So to piggy back off this thread, I have a push to start and it only came with one fob when I bought it. Any thoughts on best method to get a 2nd fob?

 

Cheap bastards! Mine came with two.... or did you buy used?
