Looked up on Google for the battery (GP23A) and the Energizer equivalent is A23 apparently

It's obviously not, as it's too big, and halfords/asda don't have anything else!

Anyone know where to buy em from?

Cheers,

Maplins do them, from what I remember when I had one.

Boots often carry a decent stock of that sort of battery as well.

Maplins next day delivery is generally good and fairly reasonably priced, from what I remember.

I wonder if they do those tiny little screws as well, as mine are slightly rounding already

In St John's Market there is an light bulb/electrical place which sells them.

I got some the other week around £1.50 each... Very Happy

Got a mate in B&Q he says they do do them

Datatool recommend GP23A but I think they actually need GP27A

Fucking clowns

Do you have a watch repair/key cutting place nearby?

They are usually pretty well-stocked with batteries of all shapes and sizes, and will probably have the little screws too.

Timpsons down the road, I'm in Speke so I'll nip over retail park and have a looksie, but the fob is flashing rapidly which means it's about to die Wink

Gonna have a dig tonight to find my spare but I think my flatmate has moved it along with my spare HISS key so if I lose the current one I will go fucking livid as it's £800 to replace the ECU.
