I dropped my friggin' keys down a sewer drain last week...and the kicker is that my new Pacifica has a key that costs $75 from the dealer!!!! It has the transponder within it, as well as the controls for the doors/tailgate/alarm.

Can anybody get me one of these badboys cheaper????

Thanks!

75 bucks? That's actually pretty cheap compared to what these things cost from other makes.

Vw key is almost $300, and $160 for the valet key. I just traded the car in.

Scott san, wakuri desu!

That sucks big time. On he bright side, those Pacificas are really cool cars. Do you have the big power engine?

My MT-01 came with three keys. Two identical black keys and one red one. I was told that I have to store the red one away from the others so the signals don't interfere with each other. I'm sure that is a little conservative, but I took their advice.

The black keys are normal transponder keys, but the red one is kind of a master. It will start the bike and reset the circuit in the bikes computer, but I am never to use the red key for actual riding. I'm not sure how much they cost, but I'll take your misfortune as a lesson if you don't mind.

Once you get the replacement, tasukete kudasai.

You should be looking for a sewer inspector. Then take all the keys and sell them back to the owners at a fraction of the replacement costs.
