hi,

i bought a key cover for my keys and recieved it today.

im confused as it looks a diff shape to my key, im also having A LOT of trouble taking mine apart.

on the instructions it says for fiat 500, but on ebay its advertised for grande punto also.

its like this; http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/WHITE-KEY-COVER-FIAT-500-NEW-GRANDE-PUNTO-NEW-BRAVO_W0QQitemZ390144598118QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Car_Parts_Vehicles_Automobila_ET?hash=item5ad66e2066

should i keep trying to get my key apart, or is this wrong for my key?

It depends on the year model. Fiat changed the key shape to match the 500 on the series 2 cars, which started in 2008. If you don't have the new shape key as shown in the picture on the eBay ad, then it won't fit.
 
Not being funny but one is this shape:

and the other is this shape:

They dont even look remotely similar lol
 
I looked at key covers but they all seem boring... not to mention bloody expensive!

maybe taking a paint brush to it would be a good universal option..

though, if cars suddenly stop working because someone's painted the power puff girls onto there key I accept no responsibility, id stop working if someone did that to me!
 
punto matt - yeah i know but im pretty much insane lol :bang:

i wouldnt paint it, the paint would just chip off and it would look rough!!

i may consider applying tiny rhinestones though! :D

im one of these customised people lol
 
I do have a Series 2 Grande Punto!

However my key is not the same as the fiat 500.
Disappointing as I wanted a key cover, but my 09 plate car doesn't have the new key, supposedly used since September 2008 (the Series 2 Grande Punto)

Another poorly/falsely advertised FIAT product :(

life goes on :D
