Spare Key - Cheapest Route?


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Had a pretty close call sat night almost losing my only key for the IS - someone up there is watching me, it was exactly where I first looked in the middle of London's Pacha nightclub just sitting there on the floor!!! Unreal luck!!

This has obv prompted me to pay out for a spare key.

Now can anyone please suggest the cheapest route as I know we can program our own keys etc. I was thinking eBay for a key and then Im sure there is a thread on here for programming your key yourself??

Advice please - with approx prices would be great.

Ta

Bill

Get a blank key and 2nd hand remote (the bit with the electrics/buttons) off eBay. And yes there are instructions on the site on how to program keys.

I was in a very similar predicament a while back (not in the middle of a club - just one key) but managed to retrieve one of my keys from a dealership so my purchases became redundant.

I may have a set (not sure of combination - whether it is the uncut key/remote). Will see what I have and so may be able to help out. Will check at home in the eve and pm if you're happy with that?

Oh if you have a key and fob uncut that'd be perfect mate....if you wouldn't mind taking a look and we can talk reddies after that. Cheers

i still have some 2 button transponder if you need.

5 pounds each for p+p

If I remember correctly, the two button transponder is part of the valet key. You still need the transponder from the master (i.e. three button) to do the setup.
