[V6-12v] [A4] Keyless Remote

[Calvyn]

I believe the first remote was the original remote since then I've bought 2
used ones which looked the same, off eBay, including the worn-off
(Lock/Unlock) lettering and smooth buttons. As Tom C would say "I think
"front 
pocket of jeans" should be added as an environmental specification on select
pieces of electronics. Apparently, that's a pretty harsh environment... ;-)"
That's where I store mine..  Oh yeah, one of them got bitten, don't ask, it
pissed someone off.

The question I have is what are you doing to your remotes?  I've had the
same remote since I bought my car over four years ago, haven't even changed
the batteries.  The remote might be older, possibly the original remote too.
