just buy it… i said it would be hard to find place to cut it, but not impossible… some small key places will do it if they have right equipment… or [&o] pay around $120 for dealer

you’s kind of right… don’t buy this one, but only because key has been already cut I didn’t read full ebay description … you would need uncut key…

ORIGINAL: chelapa

just called the dealer. i shouldnt of bid on it =\. its the wrong model key. doh!
i purchased uncut key of ebay for two different a4 before, both keys are working… if you have any info y this key model wouldnt work please explain….

PS: any dealer would love to sell you overpriced parts!

get a blank keyblade off ebay (dont get one from china) and buy a used two button already cut remote. Get the blank cut by the dealer. I can't believe that no dealer won't cut it for you. There is atleast 4 in colorado that does it. Check VW dealers as well because they have the same key just the VW on the remote.

then switch out the keyblades. you need a hammer and nail though.

if you want a new one thats guaranteed to work, then go to

its 93 bones though and you still have to pay the dealer to cut it i think

hope this helps

yea i bought the blade that they said was the correct replacement (has haa stamped on it)

and two of the dealers (one vw and one audi) when i walked in and asked to get it cut they said if i didnt buy a real blank they wouldnt cut it (said they have broken their cutting machine several times trying to cut them)
and the third one just straigt up refused to do it, and said the only way i was getting a cut key from them was to buy their 60 dollar blank to have them cut... needless to say i told them to shove it and am not going back to that dealer
