There sealed with glue so will be pretty hard to open a new one with out snapping it.

The cost is £80 + vat. £40 for the key and £40 for the programing. They all come from France and take about 10 days from point of order.

Dont buy one from ebay as Reno wont program it to your car.

£80 is the usual price of a blank key...but it is usually another £80 to programme it to the car.
