Review on 🚘 Set of 2 Key Fob Keyless Entry Remote Shell Case & Pad for Toyota Avalon 2008-2013, Camry 2007-2011, Corolla 2008-2013, Venza 2009-2014 (HYQ12BBY, GQ4-29T) by Aaron Lewis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Convenient to keep the remote control inside; not suitable for a new car key.

Made for what it was made for: a new programmable remote housing and a blank key. there is a remote control in there. You have to go to the dealer to get it and have it programmed into your car. 2) In most if not all locations it is possible to cut off the key provided so that it can actually start your car. In my experience two shops said they couldn't cut this key (which is considered a third party key and they weren't allowed to cut it) and one said they could cut it, although it was a key not provided by the store. Even though they cut it out for me the key itself didn't start my car. Apparently I would have to go to the dealer and buy a key from them and pay them to mill the key (they wouldn't accept foreign keys either). So at least it's a new case to hold my remote so I can use it to open my car and whatnot. And luckily I kept my old key to start the car. But if you want to buy it as a spare key, you have to go to a car dealer for that. to start the car.

Pros
  • Replacement housing and keypad, electronics and battery not included
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
