Prefacelift and facelift need different keys.  In addition, facelift ones need good quality keys, unless you are unlucky enough to have a CDR2005

you've not followed the post have you  ;) ;) links to both sizes of tool are posted.  ;) :y :y
Leave me alone, I don't feel well :P

Actually, as I was on a phone, I didn't click the links.  Just trying to clarify, and clarify that facelifts need good quality tools, cheapies won't cut it without modifications

Neither are any use for facelifts.  For facelifts, GOOD QUALITY ones are essential, unless you have cdr2005.  The likes of the crappy Autoleads ones are NOT suitable.

All have the notches in, if they don't they are faulty.

If you have a cdr2005, yes, probably.

Anything else, I suspect you'll rip the facia off doing it.



Good luck :y

ccr2006 and ncdc's always stick like a bastard for me.  So much so, I always ptfe spray the cages on refit.

ccrt2007/8 seem less prone IME, and cdr2005 just falls out.

Mind you, was it your one that was stuck absolutely solid? Another 10minute job taking 4 hours ;D

Yes, Mrs VXL V6's Estate, Which went from a CDR2005 to a 2013, GID and Bose... was all going exceptionally well until a minor wiring issue caused Tech II not to communicate to program the screen followed by me removing more of the bezel than the HU, followed by the connector block bending, followed by buttons not working on the replacement bezel... Oh Joy!
