Ahhh :) I used my GF's nail varnish remover and a pin with the tip bent over so I could get underneath - took me a couple of hours while I watched telly. Oh and I used a scalpel to cut the inside edge away, again I was super careful :)

itstaken longer than 2 hours i have cleared top half of the transponder but im now struggling to get underneath it to get it out :(

Local dealers did that for me, I'd already had the key cut and blank transponder coded so this morning was just a case of programming the new remote section.

Cool would be helpful but i dont want to ruin the old key
I've done a piccy to try and help and also show it can be done. I worked from the inside of the key and after a couple of hours had success. I guess it varies how much glue there is?

Brilliant! :) In fact I got mine cut by some guy on ebay after supplying him a pic of my key blade. It's not an OE quality blade but it works perfectly - so I'm happy eh :D
