If you look at that you will realize it’s a laser-cut key with a slide-groove rather than your standard tumbler-pin key. They won’t work. Maybe if someone has created a knock-off I’m not aware of… ---

I went to some vw junk yard in t.o and got mine there for my mk2, never got around to doing it. Seems fairly simple though. Also, I’m fairly certain most flip keys are exactly the same as the vw ones, so the dyi works for everyone. ---

^ That’s true, I checked one at work (GM), and they all seem to have that little roll pin in them, so I would imagine that tutorial would work with any switchblade key. ---

So, find any switchblade key and use that tutorial. ---

Basically… I would imagine they’re all like that so the key can be replaced without replacing the whole $$$$ fob. Myself, I want a VW one to go with the VW that I drive. And since I have a dealership connection, I’ll just wait until one comes along. ---
