This video has been a long time coming! We promised it over a year ago. This will show you how to repair broken VW, Seat and Skoda keys that break. The blade holder snaps and the key falls out.
This needs a new case and you need to be very careful when you break open an old VW, Seat or Skoda broken key.
Your trick to spring open the casing is great, as it is cheap to replace. Hitting that pin is indeed unneeded risk!
Finally! Thanks a lot mate. My key broke and blade flew out and I’ve lost it. Thought I’d have to melt the plastic around the pin and pull it out but knowing I can snap the key apart will be easier.
