Hope someone can help here.....

When I purchased my VR it didn't come with the original remote key fob - the guy had lost it. I have what is presumably the original spare (VW key which has to go directly into the lock barrel).

Also fitted is a non factory immobiliser with a nice little red chip that inserts in the centre console. I have the certificate for this: Shurlock EP10 (thatcham 2 approved).

How do I go about getting the remote side of the central locking working? I also want to be able to remotely disable the immobiliser with the same fob.... Can I get a new key fob from VW or do I need to fit a serperate remote unit e.g. the unit available on vagparts.com which appears to be a serpeate loom/receiver box with a couple of fobs??

Thanks!

Haha - I live down at lands end - finding a petrol station is hard enough!

I've been looking around a bit and i'm thinking the best solution may be to simply purchase a new Cat1 system (either toad ai606 or clifford C470) and have it installed professionally. I can get this done for around 200-250. Obviously this would sort my remote C/L problem. Presumably a professional installer could bypass or remove my current immobiliser?
