The "key barrel"?? I did not say that.

The "grain or rice" needs to be near the immobilizer antenna. Installing it on the rubber boot does that.
The locksmith who cut my keys told me that the Sheriff department and the CHP Take the immobilizer out of the keys on their new cars and SUVs and install near the antenna in the car. They need 3+ sets of key and they are not about to buy key with expensive immobilizers in them.
