    Does anyone have an idea of where to go to for this system fitting and about how much I can be expected to pay? I'm planning on keeping the car a while as it's my first car so id like to have it added

    Looks fine as for me! Does anybody of you use such key hider? Do you think it is worth getting one?

    Do you feel lucky?

    Will a thief look under the car for the key hider and then simply drive the car away?

    If the spare key is in there, what will you tell your insurer when they ask for both original sets of keys if the car is stolen?


    Keep the spare key at home.

    The AA will either drive you home to get it or recover the car for you.


    I suppose you could attach a duplicate key to the bulkhead somewhere under the bonnet, or beneath the battery, inside a headlamp etc. Then the AA man can open the car with an old hacksaw blade/piece of old coat-hanger etc. and you can open the bonnet to get the key.

    Just keep shtum about the existence of a duplicate key if the car goes missing ;)
    I want to go back to The Olden Days, when every single thing that I can think of was better.....

    (except air quality and Medical Science ;))
