probably but you might take this opportunity to convert to hte separate remote fob.
If you go to Porsche for parts, Sunset Imports in Oregon has the best pricing at 15% over cost.
no affiliation, I just buy a lot through them 800 346 3182

Okay, here's a shamless plug but a cool key chain IMHO.. You can get it here.

Where'd you find that if you dont mind sharing?

This certainly isn't better, is it? It's $98!


This is interesting but in the end, I don't really get it, and not for $109


This is a little too long for me and at $68, not worth it


Neat? And overpriced? $138


These are cool, the Porsche embossed leather keyrings, but why do they have to be ... $98?


If I was more of a risk taker, I might consider one of these more colorful ones (they'd get dirty and black never really looks dirty - I'm all about low maintenance)


If this was a big red I might consider it


Hard to resist the Swarovski key ring... even my wife would like it! Kind of reminds me of my "7" series key chain. Simple and elegant, $89

They make it in Big Red flavor. I've got one...straight from Stuttgart!
I think I've seen them in the Stealership as well.

Guess I'll have to truck it on over to my Stealer and check out the new array of chains. Have bling will travel. I've been living low on the land with my cruddy "lack of key fob" for about 2 years now. I think it's time to stimulate the economy and at least buy back the black leather one I'm so fond of. It's a known quantity for me (I like it) and I know it doesn't rub against my knee when driving. I have long legs and that's a major OCD thing for me when a keychain rubs on my legs while I'm driving the car. It's just an irritant to me, which is why I hate rental cars (they usually have that really long key fob of some sort that rubs my knees) and long key chains.

^^^This one is the best. I have a red one and a nice chrome one but they distract me while driving.

Here is another in red over at Pelican.



No affiliation with Pelican...yada yada
