General Replacement key blanks

[tobywood13]

Hi all, does anyone know of a supplier for Panda key blanks? I only have one set (ignition/door locks, separate boot lock) and would like to make copies.

One is original FIAT, boot release is a KL FT-50p, which appears to have been discontinued. Are there other key blanks I can order that will fit? Thanks.

They look right, thanks. I'll see if I can order a couple.

I’m sure that timpsons still do them, in all metal and plastic covered

Yes you’re correct, they do.
Timpsons can order in the blanks. My spare set cost me £20 for 3 keys as they did a 3 for 2 deal.

Popped into my local Timpsons just now, they had a set like the ones Mike shared (matching the original) for 30 quid each! Crikey. I still might go for that just for convenience, saves ordering a blank then having to get it cut separately.

Interesting they still stock the original FIAT style ones, I don't expect they sell many of those these days.

Wow, that’s quite an increase since I got mine last year.

Have you considered these ….. full set of locks (doors/boot/ignition), and the luxury of just one key for everything. £53.94 plus postage ?

Would be nice to have a single key, but then I’d need a copy of that too! Maybe if I ever break a lock I’ll go for a full replacement set.

The set comes with 2 keys, so you’d have a spare

The old style keys are still in production on, for one, those Polish Glassfibre caravans…I know as had to get one for Nina’s ‘sheep office’

You’ll probably still end up with two different keys, as most folk can’t be bothered with the hassle of swapping out the ignition

My locksmith showed me how to cut the keys with a Dremel and cutting disc. Clamp the new and old keys together in a vice, and carefully follow the pattern of the old key. I was amazed its actually not difficult. I have done several different keys now.
