Source for Tri-Mark key fobs?

A post in another recent thread got me thinking:

Thanks, that's good to know! Now, speaking of fobs and programming them, anybody got a reasonably priced source for a compatible replacement fobs? I tried contacting Tri-Mark, and thought I was making progress, but then hit a brick wall with them.

I'm having trouble finding the exact fob, but I figure there must be a range of compatible fobs with only cosmetic differences. I don't need the appearance to match, I just need it to work. Anybody know which are compatible?

I don't really want to pay the inflated dealer prices for what is a non-essential luxury. But if there is a cheap enough bargain source...

I ordered FOBs from Tri-Mark. No problem at all. If you are near Lazydays they carry them.

I picked up a couple at an RV supply store in Shreveport, LA, about $4 a piece. Then have em cut by a key maker.

Maybe we're not thinking about the same thing? I don't need a key, I want the remote entry transmitter that hangs on the key ring. Like the one on the left:

I guess I will give Tri-Mark another try. When I last contacted them, they were sort-of helpful, and asked for more information. When I replied with what model MH I had and the specific numbers on the back of the fob, the help stopped. Not sure why.

Fobs and the control box which will go eventually. Direct plug in in my 06.

Cool! I'll have to check that out. Thanks!

I'm going to be camping a couple miles from Summit Racing in about a month and a half, and it'll be the perfect excuse for going to their store (and maybe coming home with a few other "essentials.")

Now that's got me thinking... has anybody converted their cargo door latches to power locks?
