Any suggestions on where to get a new blade cut for my 51 plate boxster. I have two working key fobs but only one blade. The usual key cutting places here in Milton Keynes don't have the tools to cut this type of key it would seem.
thanks.
Steve.

Steve,

I had a couple done last year at Autofarm near Bicester, cannot tell you the cost of the cutting as I also had 2 replacement electonic fobs but well pleased with the service

Thanks Brian I'll look them up. Are they the ones in Great Horwood by any chance?

Give an OPC your chassis number and be prepared to give them a photocopy of your V5 and they will have the factory send you a new key, we do this all the time for customers.

At least with the blade it does not need programming, which requires coming to someone like us and having us release the codes from Germany.,, in your case you will just need to fit the new blade into your fob and your away
