Should be. It isn't laser cut. I had a local (not a chain) hardware cut one of my keys. I'll probably take the flip key to them also.

Got mine today. Swapped the circuit board in and I'll get the blade cut tomorrow. So far I'm happy with it!

Nice! my experience has been pretty good so far.. occasionally I have accidentally pushed the lock button when trying to start car and set off alarm but I think that is because I have WAY too many keys on my chain... lol
