Title: Broken Key - big thanks to Mattyj
Post by: Buck on 30 May 2014, 22:26

I dropped my key on the floor tonight and the metal surround holding the blade snapped  :cry:

The blade is fine and so is the remote itself. I guess I won't be able to just metal part?

Part that's snapped off

Just get second hand key off ebay and swap the mechanical bits to your existing key and fit your blade....
then no need to recode.

Hi Matt

That'd be great. It's worth a shot to see if I can repair it.
