Funny if not practical:)
Then it must be possible to "mount" just the chip somewhere near the ignition
for the same effect. I was hoping to just be able to change the ignition
safety programming on the car. Can that be done? Surely there is a chip
somewhere inside the car that can be reprogramed. Something like the BIOS
chip in a computer.

Yes. Tape the chipped key to the plastic part of the steering column and
then you can use cheap $2 copies all you want. It lowers your 'security'
a bit.

I have just acquired this vehicle. It requires one of those chip keys
to start. I really hate those keys for several reasons. Is there any
way to disable that function or otherwise avoid having to use those
high-dollar keys?
