When I bought my mirage, it only came with one key, and though it functions well, the range honestly isn't great. I looked into how much it would cost to get an extra, and from mitsubishi it is incredibly overpriced, elsewhere it seems to be sub 100 CAD.
This deal popped up on my groupon for a remote starter key for 119 CAD, and it seems worth it to me. What do you guys think?
This is for an aftermarket system that they will install. It is not for a duplicate key for your car. And as it says in the ad you will probably have to add a bunch of the other parts at additional cost to make it work.
It should still come in under $200 if they're honest company. I install remote starters myself, and the only thing missing from a basic starter needed for the Mirage is a IM bypass. Good luck!
It's a little sad that it wouldn't be a key, considering that what the picture depicts, still, as an alternative it might be worthwhile. A key from mitsu costs more, and getting another made elsewhere, though cheaper, is somewhat a hassle. I will call and look into it! Plus the remote start functionality is pretty neat.
