Additionally, there was a bit of soldering involved with the printed circuit board of the car's key which discouraged me further. Also, replacement batteries were hard to get and the batteries apparently died within 6 months to 1 year if the recommended charging pattern of charging every 3-5 days was followed. I would rather have my car's stock key usable for around 3-3.5 years than be frequently locked out of the car because I forgot to charge the key

Here is how a typical conversion looks like :-

Woah. So rebranding 3.5K item for 17K

A quick search yielded these results:

That is exactly what many of our Indian sellers have been doing since time immemorial. For example, I got an engine coolant refractometer for around INR 400 plus including taxes and delivery from Aliexpress but the same product was being sold for around INR 1400 on Amazon India. Another case that comes to mind is a car cabin's solar ventilation/exhaust/chimney system that was listed for around INR 6000 plus on Amazon India but the same one was available for around INR 800 on Aliexpress. Eventually, we ended up making our own DIY version of it for around INR 450

I have been using their Key since the last 4-5 months and I am fully satisfied with the product and the services. Their sales and after sales team's response has been very professional. The key itself looks and feels very premium. It works really well with my City, the proximity lock and unlock, Auto Window and Smart Trunk works flawlessly. I have done long interstate travels with this key and so far have not faced any issues.

I initially ordered the blade key, but after a few weeks wanted to upgrade to the Tron Key, these guys were courteous enough to give me a free upgrade. They provide standard 1 year standard warranty on all their keys and also offer extended warranty. These guys are promising lifetime service support, when I spoke to their after sales team regarding this, they informed me that though they import the keys, but they have done complete R&D on the product and will be able to repair/replace any parts as required. So far things have gone well with me, and I hope it continues to be like that in the future too.

These keys look cool but one would purchase a screen protector for such keys like how we protect our phone to protect it from the fall damage
Though these keys are very attractive to look at, I am skeptical about such upgrades. Though it may not have any niggles one might develop an anxiety about the failure of the key as it is not provided by OEM.
