hey travis... if you wanna pay a bit more this might be a better (and more stylish in my opinion) option.

Damn, I wish you posted that earlier. I ordered the other one before I went to class. It should be more than enough for what I need. lol

I finally got it today, so I haven't done anything with it yet, other than put the guts of one of my remotes in it. Hopefully I can get the key cut tomorrow and see if it'll work without adding the resistors.

Yeah, it must have been something here. I had a lot of things in my mailbox this morning. One other thing I ordered around the same time as this

Mines like that too, but the new key fits between them fine

Here are a couple pictures I took comparing the two keys. It seems like the new one is a hair longer, but that might be to make up for the fact that it don't fit all the way into the ignition cylinder..










I'll let you know tomorrow how it works if I can get it cut/working.
