As someone who has recently leant to reprogramme these used boards using MarinaBrian's or was it Trevor's hack, I would say yes. Regards, Mike |

I agree with Ross - the Valeo fobs are far superior to the unbranded ones (of which I tried several). It's mostly because the Valeo case buttons make proper contact with the circuit board microswitches - the other fobs don't. |

I wish I knew...
I think it was hunting around ebay, and various other sellers. There is a place in the UK that does "genuine" keys, that look like they have Valeo shells, but their name escapes me, they might have some shells. Thinking back it might well have been someone from Poland, I suspect the parts might have been manufactured there then shipped to Germany for the keys to get made. Who knows. I did have a fake Valeo from China, where the imprint of "Valeo" was shocking, and compared to the legitimate shells, the quality and rubbers were an order of magnitude worse. Sorry I cant help further, I stopped looking around after I stocked up. Oh one other thing... the genuine shells hold the original key blade flipping tight as you would expect. When moving the blade over on the chinese ones, it was always wobbly and totally rubbish which led me to hunt around for the proper ones. The fake quality was so bad they are pointless. |
