#1: Flip key conversion problem Author: david0753, Location: NewcastlePosted: Mon Sep 26, 2011 8:02 am ---- Hi, first post but been reading and following the how to's for quite a while..
Anyway, i just received this flip key in the post the other day... (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/300596241712)
Just been to the local key cutters, and they can't cut it, apparently it has the wrong blade.. Went to another and the same story... And twice again they said it was wrong!
I know further down the how-to there was a post saying to get a different key, but the OP used the key i got, and i assume many more people also have! Can anyone give a bit of insight? Was looking forward to flicking people on the nose with my new sexy key!
Thanks in advance!
Dave.

Id probably google a few cutting places which arent as local to you and see if they can do it for you if your locals arent

When you order the fob from some places they list both blades. Is your original blade the flat square type or the type with the hole in the tip
#4: Re: Flip key conversion problem Author: Ghosty, Location: WiltshirePosted: Mon Sep 26, 2011 8:11 am ---- there are 2 blade types for most pugs, i had a similar issue with my 306 keys, i had to go to pug in the end (£5 including cutting) for just the blade. it maybe he has sent the wrong one.
edit: macca beat me to it
#5: Re: Flip key conversion problem Author: david0753, Location: NewcastlePosted: Mon Sep 26, 2011 8:16 am ---- I have the key with the hole in the tip.. I will try ringing a few non-local cutters see what they have to say. And btw Raz, Great guide!!

Moved.
#7: Re: Flip key conversion problem Author: Ghosty, Location: WiltshirePosted: Mon Sep 26, 2011 8:20 am ---- hmm try peugeot, they can cut tthe key for you as well, £7.50 i think. only cheaper if you actually buy the key from them.
#8: Re: Flip key conversion problem Author: david0753, Location: NewcastlePosted: Mon Sep 26, 2011 8:21 am ---- My bad!
I already tried the dealer i got it from, they don't cut keys apparently (strange i know) but they give me a number for the place they use.. That place i had already been to and wouldn't cut it :s
#9: Re: Flip key conversion problem Author: Howey, Location: Kings LynnPosted: Mon Sep 26, 2011 8:25 am ---- Well if people actually read the guidelines that the staff spend hours writing then we wouldnt have to get the hump!!
#10: Re: Flip key conversion problem Author: Ghosty, Location: WiltshirePosted: Mon Sep 26, 2011 8:27 am ---- what peugeot would not cut it, thats very odd, could be cuz its not an actual pug key, but i do find that very odd
#11: Re: Flip key conversion problem Author: david0753, Location: NewcastlePosted: Mon Sep 26, 2011 8:33 am ---- Thats what i thought, surely they MUST have cutting services, even if its not an official key you would have thought they would just try and make me pay through the nose!
#12: Re: Flip key conversion problem Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Mon Sep 26, 2011 8:46 am ---- Just looked at your link OP, and its not the right blade for the 206. You need the blade that Macca linked.
#13: Re: Flip key conversion problem Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Mon Sep 26, 2011 9:13 am ---- Try making your own flip key...now that's a b***h
#14: Re: Flip key conversion problem Author: david0753, Location: NewcastlePosted: Mon Sep 26, 2011 9:29 am ---- Wouldn't even dream of attempting it!
If you done it have you got any pictures?

Thats a LASER cut blade, totally useless for a 206.
