[QUOTE="haywire, post: 443620, member: 16474"] If it wouldn't ever work why are these things sell on ebay, and from the buyer feedback it works fine. When I got the car, the remote still works, I am able to unlock the car with the remote, only cant lock it because the middle button is missing. So I am guessing the internals still work. When I got my new key, I sync it with my car (the new key), and the old key lost its sync but because the lock button was missing I cant resync it back so its been sitting in a box since. Since then I also ordered another key just in case, and also because it is cheap[SIZE="3"]ER[/SIZE] here. Not undermining your experiences, I'll take that into consideration as well that it might not work. Since I have two other new key, and the blank key only costed me £5 on eBay, I think I have nothing to lose (well, maybe a little bit). I'll do this on an experimental basis :cool: One thing I'm not sure about is whether the new key will still charge that old internals from that key. We'll see how it goes. Oh just in case you didn't know, there's somebody in UK that can repair the internals for about £27.50 plus £7.50 international shipping. They'll change the switches and put in a new rechargeable battery [URL="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290460342423&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290460342423&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT[/URL] [/QUOTE]
