Hi everyone,

I had what I believe could be a brain wave this morning..?

I only got one key with my car, so:

would me buying a second hand bravo key from a bravo at a breakers yard, and getting that programmed by a remote key programmed be a lot cheaper than:

buying the key from fiat and having the whole process done by them?

I have the key code etc for my vehicle..

Thanks
Ash

It wouldn't work with the barrel surely? They are all different?

You can get metal blanks off ebay easy enough and there are company's that will provide a cut metal part from a photo of a working key.
The hard part is usually getting the correct code. I also don't know if the transponder in the key is re-writeable or write once.

Sorry Ash can I ask how you got the code I thought FIAT were the only ones who could read it and don't usually tell the customer.

I have 2 stickers in my owners manual folder and it gives me a 4 digit code, and it says "key code" , so I just assume it was the code for the key?

Matt, I did mean getting the blade cut by the local company as well, I'm no car thief. So I couldn't start a car with another cars key! haha

Anyone can have the code for their car if they want, it just isn't automatically supplied for security reasons.

Funny enough only yesterday got the codes for Sisters Stilo, £15 +VAT from my local dealer

Nope, thats the radio I suspect. Key code and immobiliser codes are more than 4 digits.
