Keys and Cobra KeyFobs .....help!

Hi folks,

I have a 06 Lotus Exige which has only one set of keys and one Cobra Keyfob.

I do not have the Lotus supplied code card which provides the individual PIN and the unique serial number for the key and fob :roll:

Can anyone tell me how easy it would be to get a new keyfob and key for the car and how much this is likely to be? I have heard that you can program a fob in but I would still require the PIN I believe.

Answers on a postcard!

Cheers

From reading lots of SELOC posts like this previously I think your best bet is to contact a local Cobra specialist alarm fitter/maintainer who may be able to help.

Hi

You can get them on ebay.

I got a couple of spare ones a while back, 20 quid for the pair. You will need to program them yourself, and to do that you will need to get the pin for the stereo somehow...

Cheers

G-Man,

Don't know if iam missing something - but why would I need the PIN number for the stereo? I thought I just needed the PIN for the fob and the serial number for the key?

Cheers

opps, sorry no...the pin for the alarm (to program the fob to the alarm)...not the stereo, I think I must have been thinking of something else when I posted this :oops:

Ahh when you said pin, I thought you ment something like the manual override stick thats needed to program the alarm on an S1. Without that programming remotes is difficult.

Oh, and I had keys cut for £3 in Timpsons. Vauxhall Corsa I think...
