Ok key update, got 2 of these flip keu fobs off ebay, when they came i was disapointed with the quality (flimsy) and finish.
Today i popped along to a local keysmith, we talked about cutting the blank blade donw in lenght as it was about 6mm longer than the standard key, we desided to cut it back about 4mm so as not to have too much key sticking out the ing barrel.
After a few times in the cutting mechine got it to lock and unlock the car from the drivers door b ut still felt gritty when inserted, so he ran it under a wire whel to take the "edge" off it.
So armed with my newlycut key and happy with paying £2 for all the work he did i set off home to swap the guts with a spare key i had at home.
Swapped the guts over and even fitte a new battery i headed to my car popped the doors with the fob and pushed the key into the ign barrel and we have contact, it worked....................but then i tried to remove the key fro the barrel!! it was firmly stuck in there!! what the hell do i do now?
The problem was i couldnt push the key down into the barrel far enough to release the key as we've cut it too short...................
Anyway after a few choise words and a lot of bottom movments i got enough push to get the fooker out!!
It is now sat in the glove box when it will stay, dont think i'll use that again!
So if you have bought any of these keys please don't do the same as i did and cut it shorter as you have the same probs as i had.....
On a foot note i did buy 2 so im gonna try it again with out cutting it his time!!!
