Maybe 1/2” longer than an AJT key fob? Or 3/4” longer than an oem key.

That's the only thing I dislike about it so far.

Sorry they turned on upload. Sticks out further than factory. I've drove around with it a bit and so far haven't hit it with my knee and I'm 6'.

Mine is not the tightest. The Key also doesnt fit evenly in the slot.

It rattles a bit if you shake it around, but so does every factory flip key for our F250s at work. It’s of comparable quality to any factory flip key I’ve experienced.

Its a pretty shitty part.

I wont buy anything from MESO ever again.

Got mine together with red buttons after they sent me the right button.
Is it perfect? No, rough edges and some small gaps but it works. All in all, it’s not bad. Not sure if it’s a $70 item but here’s the deal:
You are also paying for someone taking the time to design, build, test and produce this for you. You are supporting a small business/individual making small batches of a product and they are easy to work with, reply to emails etc.
In the end, you don’t have to buy it if you don’t like these reviews.

I regret installing the Meso Flip Fob. Now that I destroyed one of my OEM keys I'm stuck with it. The Meso unit definitely leaves a larger imprint both in my pant pocket and when inserted into the ignition (luckily my knee doesn't interfere with it). I've had to tighten the allen screw twice now as the key likes to come loose. I also don't want to overtighten to prevent stripping the allen head.
