Might be a long time ago, but I'd still have the 'beef' with 'em.
har! spyder
WFP,
The original thread starting question was about a 2004 SED, which we all agree absolutely came with the Key, Case, and Cover. It's documented. Further, I know a 2003 SED owner who received the same. Reply #4 above stated the same for his 2003, so I think we've pretty well confirmed that all of the SED's came with these extra items. Those who didn't, have a beef with the original dealer. However, that's pretty fair in the past at this point.
Agree...if it should have been part of the package...but I have to admit, I would have caught this if it really was missing. Back in 2003, there was something called a Gold Key Package...but I know we are not confusing this. My 2004 SEEG did have a Gold Key but no Box...since then, my 2006, 2008 and 2010 included a Box for the key...even the list for 2003 I could dig up does not mention the key:
