I can't be that far behind as I use Firefox as a browser and am a regular on Elder Geek when I have a problem the PC. The last one probably indicates I rely on others for the tech help.........mmmm maybe you're right :shock:

I have worked out and installed a manual solution - details TBA at the link above. :!:

KEYS - you may well have a 'fat' key with alarm button or similar which makes it difficult to put the spare one in a wallet. Since you only need to open a door or boot to get the 'usual' keys locked therein, at which point you can deal with the alarm or immobiliser, a standard 'flat' key will suffice. Mine is made with a SILCA brand blank, type YM28. The cut key fits all locks on my S2.

keys in boot

Postby jdugene » Mon 31.12.2007, 20:24

Would you post this to me as well. After doing this last month, I spent 2plus hours going home to get a spare key. Very costly in time. Thank you, John

Keys

Postby jdugene » Mon 28.01.2008, 03:19

Russ, Would you mind emailing a copy to me as well. I'd appreciate it as I've already made the mistake of locking keys in the boot. Once wise, twice foolish. Many thanks, John

Absolutely no chance unless you add you e-mail address to your profile! :lol: That goes for the rest of you as well.
