Aren't they silly money? you can get cheap versions on aliexpress if you're prepared to wait weeks for delivery

You just need the chrome end piece to finish it off

£23.40 link above. Collected from a local dealer.

Only buy genuine Seat accessories.

Messed it up a little as when peeling off plastic it peeled the sticker bit instead. Can see little lift on one edge.

Seat do the chrome piece?
 
It’s only a sticker?! ? thought it was a replacement case at first. I like the thought of changing the look of the key but the key is already bulky enough as it is without adding to it IMO

They do different versions - plain chrome, GTi, GTD, R
I've fitted a few to previous VWs (pull back off fob then use a torx driver to remove screw the slide piece out and fit new) - the last VW i had was a 2019 T-Cross and the chrome was slightly different fitment so i had to use a dremmel to "modify" it to fit - weird?

Might do the spare key but probably just a waste of money. Would of done main key before fitting FR cover.

I purchased a different design: https://www.caraccessoriesplus.co.uk/product/seat-ibiza-2018-onwards-key-cover-speed/E6F0087013C

It certainly is overpriced even at £20.70 Don't think I'll bother with the chrome!

Not too bad the price. As it come with a alcohol wipe, 3m adhesive promoter wipe which makes the key tacky. Then you peel off film from the 3m pads and apply each section. I suppose a cheap version would be £5+. But might not fit right, lose its adhesive properties and design wear off fast.

Only time would tell if the genuine part lasts long.
 
Chrome piece arrived, But i've damages the torx screw in key lol

oh well. will ask dealer to try for me on next visit

The black screw in the fob is very easy to round off - i did that and ended up using a very small precission flat screwdriver to coax it out.
The new screw is a bit better but you need a torx to get it in fully

A T6 or T7 Torx screwdriver bit should fit.
 
My chrome piece arrived today - same problem as i had with the T-Cross - it doesn't fit without modifying.
When you try to slot it in place it wont slide far enough so a bit needs cutting off (i used a dremmel) - you'll see which part but i've attached a pic showing the part - hope this helps :)

New Vs old
