Hey all,

I have a 1997 4Runner with a factory "Securikey+" system on it. I think the gulf state toyota dealers used these? I think Audiovox made them for Toyota.

Anyway, it is the one with the alarm transmitter built onto the key. My question is, can I buy a replacement transmitter to put on my key ring and then program it to my system?

Anyone have a place to point me to order a compatible replacement transmitter for this system? will any "generic" work?

I'd like new transmitters and to ditch the "transmitter-on-the-key" things since they are showing major signs of wear!

Anybody have any ideas on this one?

Thanks!

More info:

The back of the key/transmitter has "FCC ID ELVAT6B" on it. Does anyone know a site or info on crossreferencing the different transmitters out there?

Thanks!

that "ELVAT6B" does sound similar to some of the Audivox units I install....I wonder if a regular Audiovox remote could be programmed to your car.

If you go to www.remotesunlimited.com, you can punch in the FCC ID, and buy replacement remotes--maybe they have the kind without the key attached.

And it could never hurt to see what a Toyota dealer would charge for replacements.
