Martin Imber is a member here. I'm sure he'll be able to help with your fob.  :y http://www.imber.me.uk/keyfob.htm

No idea where Bristol Street get their price from, a fob is £30-odd & maybe the same to programme it to your car - you keep your key blade.

Whats wrong with current one? If the switches and/or batt holder is gone, they can be easily repaired.

Failing that, blade + transponder is about £10 (ebay), fob about £35 (dealer, trade), programming approx. £30 at independent if too far from http://theboy.omegaowners.com

And all key programming needs a carpass (ignoring the dodgy cloning ones, which often cause sync issues).

Most dealers are £80 to plug in Tech2, thieving buggers. Hence the reason I bought my own all those years ago
