#3: Re: flip key idea and question lol Author: Mikey2uk, Location: StevenagePosted: Wed May 18, 2011 1:15 pm ---- Yes that is the right key.
All you have to do is take the guts out of your old key along with the transponder chip and simple place in the new key. Then you will have to get the blade cut.
Very simple job to do

Each to their own, I like mine and the buyers from my 2 group buys seem to like them.

Read the listing carefully, never seen a 205 or 405 with a 2 button remote key, 205 & 405 are infra red remote aswell
#9: Re: flip key idea and question lol Author: craigdmjv, Location: WiltshirePosted: Wed May 18, 2011 1:24 pm ---- where does the little black chip from the old key case go then and how do you get it out
#10: Re: flip key idea and question lol Author: MrBSI, Location: What's it to you? ? ?Posted: Wed May 18, 2011 1:25 pm ---- Thats the transponder chip for the immobiliser, dont loose / break it
#11: Re: flip key idea and question lol Author: Mikey2uk, Location: StevenagePosted: Wed May 18, 2011 1:25 pm ---- Will go in one of the 2 slots in the case. To remove it from the old one is easy as it should slip out.

You will be fine it is very easy to do
#15: Re: flip key idea and question lol Author: macca1411, Location: Westhoughton, LancashirePosted: Wed May 18, 2011 3:31 pm ---- Once the key is cut it's a 2 minute job to swap everything over. Not knowing how long the old battery had been in for, I changed that at the same time. Next job is to get a second hand circuit board, and a new transponder from Lee then I will have a spare remote key.
BTW, I love mine, saves putting holes in your jean pockets with the key blade.

They are more bulky than the normal key, but they are much cooler looking, far more comfortable in the pocket and fun to flip open and closed when you're bored.

Only had a quick look, but thought they were vacuumed.
Injection isn't that much harder tho, did that at a-level
But saying that, no point in p**sing about when you can buy them for $2

My blade has gone gold and it needs that special touch to get the key to flip out properly.
