I'd be interested in a flip key but I thought they didn't work on a 2007, only the older models |

I've tried checking Daveo's thread again but can't see anything new, maybe I've missed something.| stan Site Moderator Member Since: 13 Jul 2010 Location: a moderate moderated moderator moderating moderately in moderation Posts: 34929

Hi Sql, I have the same issue. Unfortunately the upgrade to flip keys only works on pre-'07 cars. Had it confirmed from several sources including an auto locksmith. Looks like we have to put up with these things...unless I've missed something. Life is what happens while you�re making other plans. |

When converting an early key ( 2003 ) to a flip style one, does the cut key from the first one fit in the flip one or is it only the electronics that are transferable ? |

EDIT: OK, so I can change to a 2007-2009 flip key. Thanks!

My 07 VSE came with 2 flip keys. TBH I've never seen one of those pictured above on a car where the ignition was on the dash, i.e. a full facelift 07MY version rather than the "in-Betweenies" which were facelifted outside but retained the older interior where the key was down by the gear lever. |
