Just replaced both of my keys from an EBay seller.

Both work 100% and took all of 5mins to get it sorted.

BigladUK also bought a key and works too.

Thanks for the reply.

Does it move at all though? Are we talking mm or cm's of movement?

47p2, well done. Great read and excellent result. A massive improvement and no doubt a worthy 'man-cave' when the missus, well, um, makes you want to leave the house.
