Group buy available on the uk and USA lotus forums. Well worth it.

£175 AND you've got to spend 2 days hacking to bits & reassembling your existing key fob to fit inside the narrower new one? They 'avin' a larfff?!
Haha! The things we do to have something a little different.

Some self assembly isn't an issue for me but I agree we the finish. I may look in to some sort of paint to finish it.

It's a nice touch and if it was a bit cheaper and I didn't have other bits to buy/customise, I'd be tempted. It's also a fair bit larger than the existing fob and I haven't the balls to wear a manbag to accommodate such accessories
It does take a bit of work but I think it will be worth it. Agreed it's a tad expensive. I will be painting mine to make it look nicer. With the blade closed it's a roughly the same size as the stock key. Blade open it is obviously bigger.

As I've said elsewhere, quality is st for £50 let alone £175!
There are something worth modding, the key is the bottom of that list imho.
The finish is rough yes but the detail is fantastic. Once painted I think it (for me) will be a nice item.

+1 but probably still wouldn't as the finish doesn't look great
The finish isn't great to be honest and that can be seen in the clip. It needs work and I'll be painting it soon. I'll post an update once done. It's a lot of wedge for a key fob but I hope once done it will be a nice thing to have.
