Mine is stuck solidill have a go today at some point though!
snap, mine was glued in, i had to literally butcher the the spare key to get the little sucker out
the transponder might go in the bottom half, to get it apart some keys dont require unscrewing it, it just needs a bloody good yank, i have posted further on in the thread about how i got mine goin, but it does seem that not all the keys are the same.
try timpsons, i asked the bloke working in the one in Bedford who said he'll do it, but wont be able to guarentee the work, and as a result didnt charge me, its been fine, never had a problem with it. Check if they have a laser cutter, that seems to be the only hold up

Have you tried Bletchley AUDI?
Finally sorted the flip key last week what started out as a nice cheap easy mod kinda esculated. All my own fault. Due to me being a heavy handed dumbass i managed to break the transponder in the valet key 
. Then i ruined the key half on the fob trying to remove the god damn VW badge that was on there.
So new fob with virgin transponder was ordered from ebay, and francis SEAT in Leicester coded it to the car for a modest fee. Im not even going to add up what it has cost me because it will make me cry was it worth it, not really
Here it is then, all working with leather cover thing with red stitching to match the cupra interior.

Mine didnt
Bought a second hand fob , Got a new blade , Put the little chip out of my spare key into the Flipkey and followed the instructions , All works , No Lights
where abouts in the flip key did you put the little glass transponder?
and andrew your chip was already coded as its out of your spare key, cupra.al meant a brand new transponder needs to be coded by the dealers i think.

No worries, i wasnt sure myself!
Where abouts does the transponder chip go in the flip key? as i have got both top and bottom halfs of the key and cant really tell where. Though the top half i bought arrived broken and had superglue all over it :| so thats getting sent back! Had nothing but trouble with internet buying lately!

The chip goes in the half where the Key is , If you take of the Seat Badge or vw,audio or wotever and theres a small screw under that , Undo it and the key will basically fall apart
Put chip in there , Put key back in and put spring back in and screw it up
Ah cheers, i undid that screw to see if it would come apart but im pretty sure its glued together :| hopefully getting a replacement off the bloke. Bit annoying though as i should have had it all done by now!
Cheers for the info
Cheers for the info

Just bought a three button key for my ibiza cupra tdi been all over town trying to get it cut and had alsorts of reasons why they couldnt do it some said the blades on ebay keys are made from a poor quality metal which damages there cuttors timpsons said the blade was a bit too narrow so would't fit there machine eventual got it done on the market of all places also had it coded today by hometune motoring services he comes to you it took about half an hour and that was it job done now works perfectly so it dosnt have to be done at the dealer as i was previously told.
