S1 Cobra alarm plip casing

Post by campbell » Thu Sep 27, 2007 11:28 am

The rubber strand which connects this to my keyring has perished.

I contacted Cobra re: a replacement housing, they pointed me at their supplier:

TECH-TRONICS LTD

Phone Number: 0161 8726275

Email: enquiries@tech-tronics.net

Rang them today, £12+vat for a replacement casing only (!) however the original lasted me 8 years and 70,000 miles so I'm not complaining. Prompt service from both parties. Makes a change.

Mine currently has a little chain I took from another keyring so i've happily bought a pair. Note that there is a small mistake in that listing, and additional items cost £5 extra postage. the user has a second listing for the same item though and it's correct, i'll let them know too just incase :)
