If you have the Meta fob you can do a DIY job. Remove the black plastic from the key and what is left fits nicely into a space in the fob. There's a bit of fettling but I did it one board afternoon. My keys now say TVR on one side and Meta on the other. One of the after market suppliers do this Meta key for you but it's a little daft paying if you've got the time and fettling capability to DIY.

Fed up with getting the Chav chick at the "pick a car key" type party?

I wanted a Skoda key fob for mine but they're not the joke they used to be.

What else could I have? Trabant maybe?

I have the aftermarket one, was expensive but it does look very good. You have to send them your VIN number so they can have a new key made up and even then it was very stiff in the barrel for a while.

Where did you get yours - last time I looked on TVRPlus website, they'd stopped doing it!

Skoda must be posh, they were the only source of the strange timer housing style connectors for the pilot in the 90mm Hella lights! (All you Bodyshop chaps probably just have spade terminals.... all hidden behind your nice lights - until you have to change a bulb..:-)

Hmm, looks like your right. I have had mine about 6 months but can't see them anymore.
