I'm not talking about the remote, I'm talking about the Sentry security key. Which has no replaceable parts whatsoever.
Smaller- but still stupidly big. I HATE modern car keys with big fat heads holding transponders or remotes. A simple brass key is SO much more convenient and so much easier to carry on a keyring.

I'll tell ya what. I'll take the stupidly big key. I offers theft protection plus a discount in my auto insurance premiums.
Can you say that for the simple brass key??

Given the actual size of an RFID tag, there's no need for such a ginormous head on a transponder key.
Doesn't make squat of a difference on my insurance, and auto theft is just not an issue around here. Especially not our PT cruiser. Gimme a key that fits in my pocket.
Besides, there's NO reason that a transponder/security key HAS to be as big as a hockey puck. It could be much smaller, as is the case with the keyless ignition transponders that fit in a wallet.
This was what I bought. I don't think it is all that big.
