Ok so I've only got one remote locking fob and one key which i just broke off in the filler cap.. not bothered about the key but got me worried about the key fob. Is it possible to get replacement fobs???

Im in the same boat bud. Local dealer in Inverness wants £150 bangers and the sales man was grinning form ear to ear as he told me. Ive been searching the net and a cheaper solution seems to be here but they dont have a tel number ! :

Land Rover Discovery I Key Fob

This company says all in £50 once you send them their gizmo back. Has anyone else tried them or this option, or does anyone know a better, cheaper, reliable company.
cheers

How does a D1s fob break off in a filler cap? even with a D2 it's only the blade that breaks and blanks are available.

Nah the single key broke, to get me home I put the broken bit into the ignition so the broken key would start the car, however now I can't manually unlock or lock the doors as I've only got the fob to use! This became apparent when the battery went flat last month... Bye bye central locking! Lol

Get a spare fob from ebay (same frequency as the one you've got obviously), or just sort a new key and lock the car using that. My fob need's re-soldering but locks fine on the key, personally I find the range of of LR fob's pitiful.

Not sure what the difference is betweenkey fobs but I got a disco 2 key fob with blank blade for £10 of eBay all I had to do was transfer the electric gubbens from the old fob to the new fob, they even inculded a set of battery's

I did exactly the same as JUNDER above, a couple of weeks ago, easy to do & best £10 Ive ever spent (apart from a tenner I spent in Amsterdam ten years ago)
