My old car had radweld in it for some time, after this, I had to flush the matrix about 3 times a year to keep it reasonabley working, wanted replacing really, radweld really bungs em up.

Persevere with those clips, they will be stiff and awkward to do the 1st time,  but you should get there

Thanks guys for the warning over Caustic.
I'll keep trying to remove those two hoses.

Job number 2 completed... the doorcard was removed and I found the rod had not fallen off. All I had to do was wind 'rivet type wheel until the outter door handle worked..
Can't explain it, but it did the job.

So waiting for a good sunny day with no work on to tackle those two hose pipes...

Does anyone know where I can buy a blank key fob case without the key? The type i own has one button and an led light (red). The part where it would hang on a keychain is a round end. It's the old type  :question
I went to Vauxhall here and they are looking £135 to give me a new one with key and programmed. The chip doesn't need programmed as it already works..i dropped something on my keyfob case and broke a piece off it, so just looking a new case...Vauxhall rep basically laughed at me..so any help out there would be grateful  :y

You can buy new fobs on ebay, and swap the bits over  :y
(you can keep the non programmed circuit board in case yours ever does give up, then you can get that programmed to the car  :y

If they dont have the type you need, feel free to create a wanted ad in the test zone and ill move it for you, the old style are probably not too common these days and someone may have one lying around.
