Any progress with the combined key - as i mentioned in my other post, my remote won't open from more than 3 feet away (and the head thing makes no difference before you suggest it ). Sigh.....

Prototypes being made this week - testing next week, will keep you informed.

But as MSE says, extending the aerial up the A post makes a huge difference.

First prototype key tested today, great range 30m+ (Ickle has the aerial extension mod) few tweaks to be done but should be available in about 6 weeks to buy as an unprogrammed blank, looks and feels like a key to a chunky off roader should. Razz

When you say unprogrammed blank, I guess that means it has to be taken to a mainstealer to be programmed and also cut - assuming they would be willing to do that, does anyone know the charge for that. Had a VW key done about 6 years ago and the cost back then was about £75 if I recall correctly Big Cry

Blank - does this mean I can take cut blank off my existing key and swap it in the unit for the blank there, saving me getting another one cut?

Got a Nanocom, ands assuming I can remember what to do, should be able to programme blipper. 2001 TD5 110 DCPU in Bonatti Grey

The key would be supplied uncut & unprogrammed I believe, possibly with spare blank key so if the local locksmith cocked up the cutting, you would have a spare.

Yes you would need it programming by someone with nanocom or an independant with testbook or similar.

Daniele, I'm going to get the supplier to talk directly to Martin with either a donation per unit or sponsorship deal, they're really nice genuine people, I've only become the prototype tester by chance and have no connection with them whatsoever.

I was quite frightened though on how someone with an in depth knowledge of an alarm system can do what ever they want with a system, no wonder so many Defenders disappear.

Time to review security I think!

One thing I really don't like is the 1970 Leyland key and separate fob - so was wondering if anyone made an all in one key that could accept the internal of the existing fob, or failing that a straight replacement?


I have driven a 2010 110 with integrated key. Due to the positioning of the ignition lock and switch stalk on that (left) side, it is more an impediment than the separate key & remote fob. I'm glad my 90 has the latter. Land Rover Defenders. 67 years heritage, minimal appearance changes, still going strong all over the world. Not a fashion vehicle, but fashionable to own.

Be sure, I believe you al 100% but you have "start" a great improvement for all Defender2.net users.

Have you more photos about the remote key?

Waiting news from you or from the forum for bought it
