    Has anyone tried the o2 spacer on the Cobra decats and know if it works? Can't get rid of the EML on mine.

    Flip key - nearly sorted

    Little bit worried about doing this mod now, wonder if you guys can put me at ease (since obviously so many have successfully achieved it).

     

    Took my key to the local Timpsons and they told me it's now company policy not to cut these keys anymore (any uncoded car keys) as someone had it done there but was told not to try and start the car. Anyway he did try it and the immobiliser kicked in and bricked the engine until he had paid the stealers £300 to sort it out.

     

    So my question is, if the key is not right or I mess up with not having the electronics or this transponder thingy in the right place, is it gonna lock up on me? Or is this just the Timpsons guy selling me some BS, and if I haven't done it properly all the will happen is that it won't start till I get it right?

     

    Also, I ordered mine from the same seller link from the beginning of this thread (remotefobcentre) - buy it now £14.99 or best offer. He accepted £9.99 which was my first offer. I saw the £7.99 one but I wasn't able to confirm the blade is the right length of 4.5cm on that auction, and it was from outside UK so would have taken a month or more to arrive and maybe not be the same quality.

     

    Sounds like BS to me. I went into my local Timpsons and the guy said they don't do them as the blades can snap in their machine and cause more damage than its worth. So I just went to another and they done it for me with no issues, just that its my responsibility if they damage the blade. Plus even if it did do that to your car (which I doubt) it would still be just as cheap as buying a new key from them in the first place :lol:

     

    Doing the mod is easy, just take the transponder out the old key and put it into the new case and secure in with some blutac, I had no problems at all :)

    What to do next ?

    The LED lights will make it look more modern for sure.

     

    I'd either get a new set of wheels or as CJ says get them done in a different colour and I'd get some spacers so they look more flush. Personally I'd go for new rims though.

    £200 for the front bumper by a good bodyshop that does a lot of classics.

     

    That's not a bad price! I'm looking to get mine done soon as my front bumper has loads of stone chips and want the plate holes gone
