can I put my existing key with this instead of having to have the new one cut

Yes you can put old key in it, but must transfer electronics. I recommend you watch the videos on utube before doing it because there are a couple of tricks. Note though this is the fob that splits in the middle (older style?) You will see they have two types pictured.. If led is at top of your key it will not work. It does not work for my 2012 jetta..

Yes you can put in your old key without having the new one cut. I bought it for the same application.

same keys but the key cylinder from the old one has to be used on the new one. the locks are the same , but the key cylinders are different .

you have to take it to the locksmith and they will make you a copy of the old key you have and you need to bring to the other key it's just a shell with a blank

I have not had to replace the key! However I would think you can! I Also looked up replacement key for the cut off switch and did find one.

Yes this blank key is not good for you unless you order to cut your code on it. Actually you can use the cover of this box to replace the old one.

Probably. BUT with this new key, you have to reprogram all of your existing keys as well.There are several steps FOR EACH KEY - a real pain.

Yes.It must be cut to shape as the other key already with you. And coded. .it works well.

If u had an oem license before then yes. Or else u can use the same key again as long as its a single computer u have it installed on. You may have call MS support to get activation code because they will have record of your previous installed computer.

No. You must have the original key first to set it, then remove the original key and replace it with the key (another one) of your choice, then turn it back to complete the recoding.

Yes, it is a "unique" key. You don't "cut" a new key, you program the lockset to accept a different key. If you have other "Kwikset" keys laying around, you can use those. Very neat lockset.

Yes it can but that key itself will have to be cut or programmed, what I did was use half of the shell or case and the screws it came with, the part with the key itself I just put away.., didn't need it use it.

I understand those can be re-keyed by a locksmith, but to just order a new key, I doubt it. Or if you order a whole new lock the new key probably won't work. If it did, that would mean any robber with a spare key to one of those would be able to get in. That wouldn't be too secure would it? Balance the cost of re-keying with the cost of just buying a whole new lock unit and proceed accordingly.

You don't have to cut the key but you certailnly can if you qant to. If you have the old key from a FOB that is no longer working, you can use that one.

Not too sure. However I would contact the manufacturer directly. ..they may be able to help you. Or maybe replace the lock and you will receive a new key with the new lock.

Yes. You need the current key to be able to re-key the lock so as long as you have that and the smartkey tool you can re-key the lock.

Yes, you can just get the key cut, and use the electronics from your old key. This key does not come with the electronics, so you use your existing electronics, which contains the transponder chip.

You can only put the chip part. The actual metal key cannot be replaced unless you go to the dealer. That's what I found.
