Meltdown07 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Looks from the picture like the actual key portion is the same as '05-08. Am I missing something? Go Cardinals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOMSWGN Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 The key portion is not correct. The one I saw at the dealership is laser cut, like the BMW key pic in post #16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meltdown07 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Interesting, what does the key pictured (in post 1) go to? A tribecca? A Forester? That key doesnt look laser cut. "Laser" Go Cardinals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havanahjoe Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 My 08 spec B came with the giant key. I'd be interested in a GB for a smaller 09 key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrss13 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Does anyone know what the story is with this key? I have an 07 LGT Limited and would love a 1 piece key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJS5689 Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 how bout a switchblade key? ive been wantin one of those since i knew of their existance. I miss my VW key everyday. I think the keys that dont flip open just look and feel so outdated now. They are a PITA in your pocket and I have nothign to fiddle with when I'm bored now. Not to mention the range on the Subaru keys is terrible too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a PITA in your pocket and I have nothign to fiddle with when I'm bored now. Not to mention the range on the Subaru keys is terrible too. I think the range on mine is great. Sometimes it misses a button press but I can get a response from several feet away. Our '04 Jetta has pretty bad range. I haven't really spent much time looking into it, but we've replaced the battery and it's hard to even get the trunk to open when standing behind the car. I think I need to spend some time looking at the antenna inside and maybe extending it (I think I saw some how to about this on vwvortex). I WOULD love to have a flip key though. And the fob on the 08 keys is huge. I'd like the 09 form factor better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiniStiGuy Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 I think they should atleast make it a flip key or switch blade key or even better a comfort access system with no metal key. OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertk232 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 If it works on an 05 I'd be in, I hate the extra remote. There is a key that works on 05s. It is the tribeca key. I believe the part number is 57497AG35A. I went to the dealership to have it done and the parts guy immediately knew it would work, but the guy who actually did it cautioned me that he didn't think it would work and if they did the programming and it didn't work I'd be out of the money. I crossed my fingers and it worked. This is what it looks like http://photos-055.ll.facebook.com/photos-ll-sf2p/v356/201/125/11501055/n11501055_36244695_7002.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOMSWGN Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 I take back what I stated before. The key does come in a regular cut fashion. Part number is 57497AG48A list is $77.95. It goes for $59.40 on subaruparts.com. Will cost extra for the stealership to program, but it will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denver133 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 What about the Australia Liberty key? I think I would rather have this. http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j50/denver133/book-anim-keys-sap.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPLGT Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 What about the Australia Liberty key? I think I would rather have this. http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j50/denver133/book-anim-keys-sap.gif Very cool. I have the 08 Tribeca key. My dealer sold and programmed it to me for $75. I did have an 09 loaner and really like the newer, small key. Rehab is for quitters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aigochamaloh Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 My 09 key not laser cut. Regular style, conventionally cut. The buttons are not easy to accidentally press. I have my keys and wallet in the same pocket, and I've jiggled them around but nothing gets pushed. I do like that Liberty key, looks much smaller, but that looks laser cut. http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb227/aigochamaloh/DSC_6155.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
