you can buy them on ebay with a blank key, so all you do is take it to a lock smiths and get them to cut it to your original

Was having a think about this, ive got an after market alarm system not cobra or anything and was wondering whether its possible to program the vauxhall key to open and close the doors in the same way the existing fob does

the blades on these flip keys are completely wrong for a corsa b, you cant buy a flip key wih a blade that fits a corsa b,
<waits to be corrected>

Not as simple as just getting the key cut. You then gotta move the transponder for the immobileiser. Then the bits for the remote. Don't think the newer keys can be programmed to older Corsas.

most b's dont have remote locking anyway, unless its aftermarket and then if its the same frequency i dont see why it wouldnt work, but yes the key chip will need swapping over, point i was making if a flip key with a blank blade was bought from ebay, that the blade is not suitable for a corsa b, its completely different

ive done mine the same and tbh i think it is worth the hassle , because it just saves having a shitty old key in your pocket , mine looks way better , and all i done was glued the little chip inside the top of the key , ill try and get some pictures up

its still the standard key mate but its made to fit the flip key , i dont think you can get the blde cut to fit the barrels of the corsa b , so you will have to strighten out your key and just modify the flip key so yours fits
