Okay so seeing loads of signs saying "we now cut car keys" I bought a key with chip for my c5. Of course they couldn't cut it.
Does anyone know anywhere up north that can cut my key (Maybe even through post).
I think I could program it using my LExia. Instrauctions didn't seem too difficult hence why I thought of doing it.

Re: Key Cutting
Not 'oop north' but you could ask if he can do them by post. I can recommend him, I bought a 2001 Xantia HDI without keys, he came to my place. cut and programmed (from the code card) the main key and chucked in a spare door key all for £70.00

Re: Key Cutting
I was looking at these people http://www.carkeyhelp.co.uk/products/Ci ... ade-1.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (although you have bought a key) £20 for what I wanted and they are able to cut from a photo. For once the dealer price is similar so ordered from them using the vin number. For my Xantia key, cut, key code and plip rivet set just over £25 which didn't seem that bad. Pick it up saturday then we will see if it really is that easy to code a new key and reprogramme a remote plip

Re: Key Cutting
Incidentally I got my cose about a year back from some guy who was looking them up for everyone on another forum. I lost it. Anyone have an idea of where this was or at least how to get the cost from the vin number without paying the stealer.
