    Default OEM and aftermarket keys

    Hi

    Pretty new to all this and doing a lot of research

    Where's best place to buy OEM and aftermarket remote keys ?

    Looking right price, reliable keys and fast delivery.

    Thanks in advance

    For the beginning AliExpress. HU66, FO21, HU133, HU100, HU101, etc. Key blanks, later remotes and such.

    KDX2 and keydiy remotes is a decent start point , alot of oem keys you will need a good mainstream supplier like 3d group , nwkeys or keyclick , remkeys in turkey is also good , but with china even the good suppliers can be slow to get orders to you , and some can be hit and miss on quality .

    Thanks for replys much appreciate. Have the KD900 and x2 really struggling with Vauxhall with this set up. Can get keys programmed but not remotes. Used FVDI and MVP pro after copying and making key

    depends on the vauxhall , keydiy makes the remote on an nb key for insignia , astra j , corsa e , zafeira c , mokka and adam ok , corsa c it makes ok , and the old astra g bosche key , rest can be hit and miss . there are some aftermarket keys for astra h and corsa d but can be hit and miss on quality .
    so depends which vauxhall you are struggling on .

    Thanks for reply. Was asked by a friend to convert his 2011 Vivario key to a flip key as original key got bent a couple of times. Managed to code I.D. 46 chip but remote is the problem

    these are not vauxhall keys , these are renault keys and keydiy is very poor on renault , some will work though but only if using the correct older style NB key and generated from the old nb zone in the software , no coverage on the new multi function nb keys . but even these old nb keys can quickly fail , luck of draw on these . if using an old renault NB key then generate with keydiy in old nb zone and then code chip via obd with mvp pro or similar , remote should code in at same time as chip , you wont get this working by cloning chip and trying to code remote seperately.
    stick to original or aftermarket keys of same style as far stronger on van use than a flip key , if your friend has managed to bend these fixed blade keys then he will quickly kill a flip key.
