Great mod and instructions, thanks 
I'll be sure to do this mod.
I would love to know the answer to this and how to increase the range of Homelink too.
I'll be sure to do this mod.

ok after i read this post i went over to rmmgs4's place and did the mod myself too
however, sad to say, it didn't really do much in my case. maybe it helped a bit, but i did a 9 location tests before and after the mod and the results were pretty much the same before and after
but by comparison, putting the key against my chin made it work like a charm, even from like 70 fit away
for the record though, as long as there is another vehicle in between me and my car, or if i am over 40 or 50 ft away from my car, it gets hard to trigger the remote
comparing to my is300 and sc430 this is still weak

Yup - I use the chin trick once in a while, and it works very well. I just point the key straight up and the tip against my skin under my chin. Range probably triples!
