Hi Folks

Anyone know where I may be able to get replacement rubbery bit for my VTII GTS ( Clubsport R8 ) key remote

It all works fine it's just perished and now split. Sadly the spare fob was already knackered when I bought the car

If I must I will get one from Aus for £50 and wait 2 weeks for it to arrive ( matbe 3/4 with Xmas in the way ) just seems a bit over the top when I only need the rubbery bit

Any bright ideas ?

i'm pretty sure i saw a kit a while ago on ebay.com (not co.uk). there were the spare buttons and screws etc. I would try there first. if that's not on there anymore you can usually find someone selling the whole plastic casing.
hope this helps.

What a star Drew SS ! ( and you used to have a Torana - you lucky bugger. An A9X / SLR5000 would be on my list of must imports, if money was no object )

£10 plus £1 postage. That's more like it

Still pricey for a few bit's of tiny rubber but I'm not going to quibble over that

Placing my order later today if you're interested so I'll see if they'll do a discount for bulk order

Cheers

Moose

ps thanks for the other offers, lovin' the community spirit !!!

Normally about $70 I think. So £40ish... I am guessing less than that though. Is it a 2 button or 3 button version?
Do you have somebody to program it? I am guessing a Vauxhall dealer can do it. I don't mind helping out also.
