Plip
I had a very clumsy half-hour on Saturday, during which I broke a pint glass (a CAMRA Sussex beer festival one, which I was quite upset about), cut myself on the broken glass, ruined my lunch (the pasta went soggy while I was stemming the flow of blood) and then dropped my car keys. They landed on the pavement plip-down and smashed the plip so I no longer have remote locking
Does anyone have a spare plip with matching roof-mounted sensor that I can buy?
Or, better yet, does anyone know if they are wired up in the same way as other cars? What I'd really like to do is get a plip and sensor from something like a scrap ZX, as they are much smaller and easier to carry around in your pocket. Will this be a straight swap?

Recoding a spare plip to match your receiver is covered in this article:

I've done this and know it does work.

Actually, Charlie, that might be best - then I can just swap the workings from mine into it and I won't even need to re-programme! Thanks.
It hit the pavement with the button facing down, so the red button has gone AWOL and the casing's smashed up around where it would clip into place. I didn't bother searching for the button in the gutter as there's nothing for it to clip back into

Spoke too soon - no need to wait for daylight at all. The whole thing comes apart without any tools required; in fact I swapped my innards into Charlie's casing while talking on the phone to my sister. It lights up when you press the button so no reason why it won't work, but I can't be arsed to walk round to where the car's parked so will report back tomorrow. Thanks again charlie!stu wrote:It came today, cheers Charlie! I reckon that's exactly what I need. I'll have a go at it tomorrow when it's light and I'm not completely exhausted. Pint waiting at the National!
