Does your key look like the one in this listing? I bought the one that is listed in the OP and used up 3 of the four blanks without ANY success in having the blades work. The flip key blade is a couple millimeters wider (not thicker) than the stock key and therefore messes with the alignment. When I contacted the seller they stated that the blade may need modification to work however the different shops that I went to all have that same standard key cutting machine that you find everywhere it seems. To be sure the right template was being used I purchased and had cut a new key from the stock at the places I went to and all 3 of their keys worked however when they cut the flip key blade it was cutting the key wrong due to the width. For reference I went to Wal-mart, Lowes, and the local Toyota dealership. Any info would be greatly appreciated as I would really like to have a flip key rather that one with the integrated FOB nor do I wish to have the dongle as it adds too much bulk IMHO.
