Thread: UK - Ebay Keys

I'm pretty sure you'll find the blade for the key (Rover) is totally different and therefore will not work.

Add a link to the Ebay site and I should be able to confirm but pretty certain it won't work.

Not sure which number you are referring to. The one on the sticker of the circuit board is the code used to program the fob. 100% certain it has no connection to frequency. The number on the fob case is the Valeo number. Both the D2 and Rover have the same number but the blade is different along with the connection.

If you have looked all through the forum prices vary from $85 - $150 and they are Land Rover keys not Rover keys so maybe just get a Land Rover key.

I have purchased a genuine key from the UK chaps for $140.

Pretty sure this is what you are referring to.

Pretty well much answers your question I think.

YEAH THE 75 ONES are good if the rubbers go on you rkey fob, you can just switch the key & transponder over..the 75 key blade itself though is different as they a laser cut type rather than standard disco ones...might be same as d2a though but never seen one of those

????? The rubbers are different and the blade is different. Which one are you referring to. D2a are the same as a D2 keys. Do you actually have a rover key you have used?

if yo ujust need a new housing and rubbers the 75 works fine...i got one.
Just transfer the blade, chip & circuit board to the 75 one...the rubbers are a different style but function the same way

Is the connection for the blade the same? (as shown in this link Landrover Discovery 2 Key Blade C/W Plastic Clip on eBay (end time 15-Feb-11 13:15:42 GMT))

Assuming it is if you can simply pull out and switch blades? If it is then that sounds like the way to go if the fob is worn out.

yeah it just pushes straight in

Well if that's the case then also look at the mini key. Almost identical but only 2 bucks (at the moment).
