[s-cars] Switchblade Remote question

[Fred Munro]

Tony;

There appear to be several styles of blanks for the internal cut keys. The
correct blank for my '97 S6 has "HAA" stamped on it. If you buy the remote
from one of the re-sellers on e-bay, make sure it comes with the correct
blank. You can usually see the code stamped on the blank in one of the
photos.

Fred

I don't believe I've ever got 15ft from either of my RF remotes. Not sure I
need it either.

So, I'll will attempt to win a remote.

What about the key, does that fit the locks if cut correctly - the one for
our Golf does look to have the correct shape.

Hi Sean;

The original remotes supplied with the '97 S6 did not come with a trunk
release feature. The "3" as a final digit in the FCCID code indicates no
trunk release. The "4" in the switchblade code indicates a trunk release,
hence the extra button.

As for range, the IR remote on my S4 is good for ~6 feet, so I expect the 15
feet from the switchblade will be a major improvement :)

Hmm, the OEM remote supplied with my car were only 2 button and did not
control the trunk. But, they were replacements when I bought the car
used and it wouldn't surprise me if the dealer bought the wrong ones.
