It happened again, long term members may recall this happened to me a few years back, well last week as I went to my car after having coffee in M&S and lo and behold when I pressed the spring release button no key popped out :Shocked: :Shocked: :Shocked:
I got out of the car fearing the worst and retraced my step and gues what, I found the blade on the floor. If only I could emulate this luck on the lottery. So I did a jerry fix to get me home then out with the Asathorny patent key fixing kit, I removed the plastic cleat from a small panel pin, snipped it to the appropriate length then with a dot of super glue reassembled it all. I then left it as you see it overnight for the glue to go off.
Voila, now both my keys have the same fix. I am now removing the car key from the bunch when driving so that the car key blade is not carrying all the weight of the bunch, so far so good :goodjob: :goodjob: :goodjob: :goodjob:
I hope the offering might be of use to one of our happy band of owners :goodjob: :goodjob: :goodjob: :goodjob:

Whilst congratulations are due for your repair - hanging all that ironmongery off the key fob is rather asking for trouble.
Are you a part time jailer or something similar?......... :whistler:
You may cause damage to other vital parts if you walk about with that lot in your trouser pocket. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
