Cool. Can you give some details - photos, links?

No pictures, didn't think to take any. Lots of help/supervision from a friend. Ok.... I helped and offered him beer. Wouldn't want to try it on my own.

Is your car didn't come with factory keyless entry/central lock unit?
I used this alarm sistem on my mirage, no need extra key chain, it works with original transmitter.

Dude... you're not supposed to offer people drinks you wouldn't be willing to drink yourself! :P

It is a DS model that came with some options but not keyless entry. The key is a standard chip key but no remote function on the key.

Really?? Never heard of this one before. Options in '15 were the DE, Rockford Fosgate (RF), and ES. Keyless entry was standard in '14-'15 across the range, and still is in '17 as well. The previous owner may have lost the original remote key and replaced it with a chipped non-remote key? This is a very distinct possibility if the car were repossessed or something.

I'd very much like to see the actual key you have for your car. My ex-girlfriend's '14 DE was about as base as you could get and it had RKE.

If it doesn't look like this, then you likely have the wrong one.

Called Mitsubishi roadside. 2015 Mirage the starter sounds stuck. It's spinning the motor but not turning over and has a raw fuel smell.

If your starter is spinning the motor and you can smell fuel probably you have an issue with spark...

Temps were in the 60s so I plastidipped my front bumper today while referencing this thread and this thread. Even though I removed the tape immediately after applying the last layer, it still wanted to pull some plastidip up with it. I recommend very gently scoring the edges of the tape with a razor blade. Very softly and carefully, or else you'll scratch your actual bumper like I did in a small section. I also started the car after she's been sitting in my garage all winter since November with battery in/no charger and it started right up!







It doesn't seem to look TOO terrible from far away, but it's hard to get the lines just right. I think I could take some off the "corners", like right by the bottom of the square thing looks weird. What do you guys think?



Not perfect: I had tape tucked under the plastic part. You can tell the plastidip doesn't make it all the way to the edge. Too much tape?
