    Thank you very much for the information. The instructions I received from the manufacturer (or distributor perhaps) did not include the details for the double cab 2006 Tundra. I tried 10-12 times to get the new fobs programmed, with no success. After “googling” your site, I noticed a slight difference in procedure for the double cab and it worked the first time! Again, thank you very much. George Fadok

    So I bought and extra key fob for my 2006 Tundra Double cab forever ago (like 10 years, I don’t even remember from who). The point was I was never able to get my truck into programming mode. Today I cam across the useless fob and on a whim I searched again and your site was the first return result. I read through the first set of instructions (for the regular cab) I thought “yeah I did that 50 times it doesn’t work” Then I saw your note on the double cab and went through those steps. HOLY $&%! It works work I was able to re-program the truck to accept my new and old remotes. This is awesome. For anyone else follow the instructions exactly they work!
