Well I went to several regular locksmiths u get in shopping centers and they had not got the equipment. So I found this place crothers.ie who had the special machine and it took 10 mins and cost 17 euro..He told me tho he can't accept any responsibility for any damage etc..then checked that it worked in door..happy days |

Yes I have had no problems other than gluing it together, tricky to do a neat job.. |

make sure you buy the 433mhz and not the 315mhz as they will not work, my one has been working 5 months no probs at all, WORD OF WARNING, before you buy see if you can get in an email some form of warranty ,not that i think it will be any good, i bought 10 units and 3of them had probs straingt away and just found out last week one more has starting playing up,not charging,buttons not working and cant sync to car are some of the probs.

I have ordered several of these today, so if anyone is interested in 1 let me know, I will work out what they will cost me once arrived, I am sure mr customs will take something on arrival in the UK!.

Timpson can do the keys if you have a blank to be cut, they just won't guarantee the work. The chap did it for me for free which was a bonus. Tom
