So what I'm hearing is that you can use the "plain" key to pen the doors w/o triggering the alarm as long as the alarm isn't on (by either using the remote or by locking the doors via the inside door switch).
If that's the case, then are the security features of the "chipped" key (both external alarm and starter-kill) sacrificed just in order to use a plain key?
If that's the case, it seems to be a pretty hefty risk just to save buying a spare "chipped" key if anyone can just start up the car with a department store "plain" spare key since you'd unable to use the PT's security features. [:I]
