Howdy guys and gals

I have a bit of an issue with my car not wanting to lock when the weather is getting frosty (like all the time then!!) so I am assuming that a new battery is in order. However it would seem that someone in the past has decided to use super-glue rather than the supplied screw to keep it all together, which kind of scuppers me for getting in for a new battery without causing major damage. I also only have the one key so I dont want to be too violent with it.

I have seen on fleabay that you can get replacement casing for your key key case

the only problem is that I have 2 buttons on my key not the single button available here [Image: RouglSro_X6k9d1qqk_qxME6ROi2NESRBcqlkPQl...directlink]

So does anyone know if I just need to add an extra hole for the trunk button in that case and all will be well, or will I be better off getting a new key and having it programmed, as im going to assume I dont have a master key.

Thanks in advance

You will need to get the encoder out of your current key, then you'll have to get another one cut from a blank by the sound of it.

You should be able to find the 2 and 3 hole key cases on ebay, one of my mates bought one not so long ago so I'll ask him where he got it.

great stuff, the only 2 and 3 button cases i can find are for the buttons on the face of the key, mine are on the side, so its proving to be a bit harder to find

I've been hunting for a replacement key for my tez for ages. You can get copies on ebay but the quality isn't great. Don't think you can get the oem ones unfortunately.

A few quick links. Not sure if the blade is the right size though...

The last one has the wrong style of blade but the right markings on the back. The first one is probably worth a go for £5, might even be able to transfer my blade if im lucky (I rarely am!!) Thanks for that Kev
