[s-cars] IR remote?

[Franco Barber]

In the same time frame that Audi had the IR key, they also had a
nearly identical key that had merely a flashlight in it instead
of an IR remote.  I don't know how to tell the two apart from a picture.

Also, if you buy such a used key, realize that you will only
be able to use the IR remote part.  The key shank has already been
cut for another lock, and unless you feel like rekeying your car
(ignition, doors, glovebox, trunk) you will still have to carry a
key on your keyring.
