Those are great. Any chance of getting some with the "GTX1" inscription? :cheers

Thank you for the kind words

I chatted with the folks responsible for completing the process and forwarded me the sample and "yes" GTX-1 can be inserted into the key.

There would be a setup and short run cost that would have to be shared between a few folks nevertheless the bottom-line is that a personalized piece can be offered which IMO is simply another cool touch.

I'll take two sets. Can we get them in RED? BTW, get a hand model next time so we don't have to look at dirty fingernails. Stormcat's legs were bad enough. If you need it, send me a free can of this stuff for photos with beautiful hands and fingers.

Really pretty, i'm thinking I have to, but just remember because the key and the car are so easily/obviously matched, you CAN'T EVER lose your keys! I know that a lot of otherwise honest folks would be sorely tempted for a test drive.

ROFL................ you kill me.

I should have placed the pieces on my legs for the photo shoot and then "A-Leg-Off" would have begun.

I will do better the next time, rest assured

Can you have some made up that read "Trailer Queen" for people like DBTGT? Is that your console? What's with the huge remote control?

Now to the term "Trailer Queen" in reference to DBKGT I can not reply however to the question about the remote I can.

First of all I hope that your were jousting however if you were not let me ramble for a moment.

The remote is nearly the same width and thickness as OEM however the tip in which the ring is placed is a little bit longer; now up close and personal it looks as if it should have come with our gals and the slight increase in length allowed for IMO the styling befitting of these gals.

This is a situation where function followed form because the goal was to create a very cool, unique, and vehicle specific key and remote. Could it have been made a bit shorter; certainly however not without losing the cool looks.

Now keep in mind that the internals of the remote are exactly as OEM; this had to be the case because the original generic remote that the gals came with will be opened and the button panel swapped between them as such the button portion of the case is as OEM.

Here is another picture
