It makes it easier to get the keys you need for your ignition without having to get one directly from the factory. Its also important to realize that a 944 key has two parts: the blade and the key head (bow). This means that you need to determine if you need one or both parts when obtaining a replacement.

• Lighted key head
• Logo on head
• Keyless entry fob
• Key blade only

A keyless entry fob is sometimes available for a Porsche 944. The fob works as a remote to lock and unlock doors when in close proximity to the car. Inside the car, there is a receiving unit that receives the signal. It functions using short-wave radio frequencies. As long as you already have a receiving unit, you can get a replacement fob. It is then programmed to ensure that the remote works with your receiving unit.

Key blanks are cut by working with a locksmith. A special machine is used to grind the metal to meet the unique shape of the key that will fit inside your ignition cylinder. If you already have a key, that can be used as the template to cut any blanks that you need. If you dont have an existing key, it might be necessary to remove the ignition cylinder or get a new one.
