Since the late 2000s, Mazda has released a set of 5 digit codes for each car model for the year 20 in 20. Toyota, Lexus, Nissan, Honda, BMW and Mercedes (through its German subsidiary) all have a robust electronic key system (EKS) and code generator or electronic code reader (ECR) that has a good chance of being in production vehicles already. Prior to the advent of eBay and the Internet, collectors and enthusiasts would have to pay visits to the automaker's service shops to have the codes read to them. Some of these codes were posted on eBay before they were released by the respective manufacturers. Rear view mirror codes of Ford and Chrysler cars from the 1970s and 1980s, are often available on eBay in the thousands of dollars.
