Lightbulb Anyway to get better range out of the key fob

Hey Guys

Raaw here.

Im new but yall will know me soon enough, i have something more along the lines of and annoyance rather that actual problem, My 2009 G37 sedan, key fob is WEAK! I cant be 20 feet away to lock or unlock and i just had the battery changed about 2 days ago as well as a new battery for the whip, I just want to know if any of you guys are in the same boat or have a solution to this annoyance.

Hold the fob in your teeth, you'll get an addition five to ten feet out of it. Seriously.

So are you still doing that now? I’m surprised you haven’t invested in making pants pockets with teeth by now bro

I believed him when he said seriously, just not something I deem worth of my sense.

I have laughed so hard at this. You will also once you hold the fob to your mouth.

So after deep consideration I went a head and did it but the results were the same, so I’m thinking maybe if I put it in my pants zipper, I might find something new out 😂

You introduced yourself to the forum with a fair question. A moderator gave you a simple answer that probably seemed unorthodox, but is a real answer nonetheless. Then you mocked him, then you dissed me, then made another lame joke.

It's not worth it. We're done here.
