bludclot Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 has anyone attempted a key conversion for the ford escort? for my first van i had the key welded to a piece of 2mm steel and this was drilled into a meta keyfob: http://portchesterpropertymaintenance.co.uk/images/van/key2.jpg but now ford have changed their key material make up and current key blanks are not steel and don't weld. i had this made up: http://portchesterpropertymaintenance.co.uk/images/van/key.jpg but the man that made it said not to grind down the solder (or weld) any further or its strength will be compromised. now obviously i don't want it breaking off in my ignition barrel.... i see that current transit keys are available: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/160963282270?ssP...984.m1423.l2649 can these be cut to escort key specs? has anyone here built an escort key into a buttoned fob and can guide me before i embark on this learning curve?
