    Default Flip Key

    Phoned my local stealer about a flippy key today, quoting £37.90 for key, £30.00 for programming, so altogether £67.90+VAT=about £80 YEAH RIGHT lol I'd love one but not that badly.....

    Oh yes and if I don't have the car pass (which luckily I do anyway) it'd be another £20 on top of that!

    Times like this I wish I 'knew people' lol...

    I got one, it's looks outweight it's functionality, the normal key goes in and out, the flip you have to mess about flipping it out, then it feels flimsy when you start the car, and then ya gotta put it away afterwards, call me lazy but I'm using the old one again, bring on them holey pockets again, lol

    That was Arnold Clark Linwood, usually they're ok pricewise for parts. I've yet to phone Lindsay's Vx in Dumbuck they might be cheaper, thats where I get all my work and servicing etc done anyway, I just happened to be over that way the other day.
