Alfa Romeo Guilietta Mito 159 & GTA - 3 button flip key shell - no electronics

This style of Alfa Romeo flip-key using the Silca SIP 22 or JMA FI16 key blade is fairly common. 

Things to note are the position of the buttons on the front of the shell as they are evenly spaced on the red front plate and feature symbols for Lock, Unlock & Boot. The battery compartment is fitted in the side slot where the key blade sits when folded away. The battery compartment is opened using a screw driver to move the arrow from Lock to Unlock.

You don't have to replace your entire flip-key just because the shell is damaged or the key blade has broken away from the plastic body.

Here we offer you a top quality replacement flip-key shell for your old broken flip-key. Having a key covered in tape to hold it together or with holes in the buttons is never a good look and can be a real frustration.

The kit includes the front and back sections of the key shell with the flip-key mechanism and a key blade which needs to be cut to match your old one. Even though this is an aftermarket key shell, there is a round recess on the flip button to place a logo sticker. This kit does not include a logo sticker and so you will need to transfer the old one from your old key.

You may need to replace the double sided tape on your old logo sticker before refitting it to the new shell.

Swapping over your remote into the new shell is relatively easy to do yourself or come into our shop and we will swap them over for you, cut the key blade and test the battery for you.

Please note we do charge a fee of $50 for this service and this is only offered at our shop in East Victoria Park, WA 6101.

If you do not live close by you can swap over the remote yourself and have the key blade cut at your local locksmith or key cutting kiosk. This type of key cutting is usually referred to as laser cut or wave cut. 

While the battery is out of the battery holder, you can test to see it has 3 volts using a multi-meter if you have one.

It is always wise to use a reputable key cutting shop to ensure your key is cut accurately as even the smallest variance in the dimensions can prevent the key from working correctly. We calibrate our key machine regularly to ensure it is working to the most accurate level possible.
