i still haven't received my key yet but went to the local timpsons to see how much it would be to get the key cut and they said that it can only be cut at a local dealer because its encryptocoded or something?

What happens now?

I went to Timpsons and they said exactly the same thing. They seemed pretty adament it was a dealer only job. Took it to my local VW dealer they did it straight away no questions asked.

My local Timpsons said he's do it, but if he snaps the key it's not his problem and still £5 ... was worth taking the risk though.

I'd ask him to do it and tell him thats what I got told - he might do it then. :)

cheers for your replies! going to get the key cut tomorrow and MAKE them do it at timpsons :D

My key arrived today THANKGOD! just going to try and program it now. Hope it works as the key looks so sleek and makes me feel like i'm the owner of a brand new Leon Cupra or something just as good. :p

Can anyone confirm if the following key will work with a 2003 Ibiza?
Part number: HLO 3C0 959 753AD
Ebay Item Number: 320256997718
Might be too adventurous for an Ibiza? What do you think?

I think you can use a 433mhz or 434mhz key.someone mentioned it near the beginning of this thread that you could use either as the real frequency is 433.92MHz.some call it 433 others 434 but all the same.

I have a 2002 mk4 ibiza and both numbers work as does the boot button:),not sure if its the same with the leon but i would have thought so?

If you cant get a 2 button easily just buy a 3button as the other 2 buttons will still work fine even if the boot doesnt.

to be honest i never use the boot button anyway:shrug:
