Hi All, I have just got a new ZX (p reg) but it came without the remote central locking plip(key fob). Does anyone know where a replacemnt plip can be bought. I assume the sensor it present it looks like it is. Citroen wanted £50 last time I asked a couple of years ago, so it never got done.
Thanks Tom
PS. I still need a new bumper for it. Red Elation model.

Its not worth it unless dirt cheap... mine has it but only works if you point the fob through the window, which is close enough to unlock it anyway!

Keep an eye on eBay. They usually go for about £30.

The Infra red remote locking needs a line of sight to the receiver in the roof console to work, Thats why it needs to be aimed through the window.
Infra red is rubbish, easy to scan too.
