If Jaycar don't have any, i know places like Mr Minit and other key cutters stock them.

But are they at the end of a winding, hilly road...

I always take the scenic route :auto:

I asked at one of those key cutting places located in most shopping centres. They could replicate most Hyundai keys up to about 2005 (I might be wrong - could have been earlier than that), but not the newer vehicles. Come back in a few years I was told.

At least everyone gets 2 keys with their i30

Have you ever seen the one's you can start the motor remotely? with those ones you don't need a key at all, just the remote controler.

about key's and key cutters , i lost the key to a new Toyota Hiace van those fridges on wheels :) don't come with a remote control only a key, well i lost the spare one and knowing Toyota would cost an arm and a leg for that normal looking key, the closest key cutter wanted $120, then a friend at work was in the CBD of Sydney and asked a key cutter there they said about $30, so i go there and they look at the key put it in a machine and come back tell me will cost $150 as it has to be oprogramed as well as cut. so only have one key for that. i hate those Vans!

Hey M8 do they come with a big remote foot to push the clutch in :P

No m8 it's fairdinkum! i know guys with them on Harleys just have to leave bike in neutral and hit the remote button they fire up and start, my friend has fun at pubs, as if a few people looking at hisustom bike and it fires up on its own :) my other m8 in canada has that on his car. it's an auto. a guy here in Sydney was fitting them, people with custom Choppers liked them as did not need keys or key fittings so could keep bike clean looking.

Hi M8,

What i was getting at is you can't start a late model Hyundai without depressing the clutch first!

Hence the big remote left foot... :grin:

Looks at least like something can be done about the spare "fobless" key.

Well, my dealer din't call back today :puzzled: so I'll have to chase him up on Monday...stay tuned!

I spoke to my local dealer today and they confirmed that all new cars (at least the SLX cos that is what I was asking about) will now come with 2 flip key / remotes.

picked up my car today and received 2 remotes as promised!

Congrats crb, looks like you have done well on all counts. As others have said in another thread by Lakes, look forward to seeing some pics of it.

Just one word of warning - cars are REALLY much closer than they appear in the wing mirrors! I nearly stuffed up when I first got my i30 when using an overtaking lane to pass another car, and I was baulked by a slowish vehicle in the overtaking lane. Very nearly clipped the car behind when I moved back into the slow lane :crying: Visibility out the back by craning your neck is not as good as what I was used to. A lesson learned cheaply!

Lets know if you have any problems down the track with the dealer.

Regards

Lawrie

Still haven't got a call from my dealer to say the spare remote has arrived, thanks for reminding me will give him a call now!

Cheers,

Got my second key today .. bit of a long story (see i30 Club site) better not do a duplicate post but basically i'm happy now (one of the lucky ones) :banana:

My dash mat is dragging its feet. Guy from Autobarn said got everything in his order but my Mat :crying: So which one of you B...... got it????

Bye for Now,

Dazz

I picked up my I30SX last Thursday (April 22), and was given 2 keys without even asking :)
