Those are the ones I bought, they have the Landrover logo and the blade fits perfectly.
I did buy some others previously that looked identical but the blade was a different size. Seller claimed nobody had an issue beforeIID PRO

Oops sorry about the link to the batteries
Martin - The key shell's I got off eBay have the Land Rover logo on them - they look good to me (don't know what an original one should look like though) & I can use all the buttons again

Anyone had any luck getting a new keyfob case with a proper LR logo on it, or are they all blank oval buttons?
One of my fobs has a split button so it needs the case changing really
Key turned up today from the link Landie put.
Came with a black sticker on it.
Under the sticker is a Land Rover symbol
Long since time I bought one (or two) if we can get them with logos on.
I'd better get one ordered quickly before LR put a stop to it...Current: Discovery 3 06MY (55 reg) HSE Auto Zambezi Silver Allisport Fast Road Intercooler, V8 Brakes, Silicone IC Hoses, EGRs Blanked, Remapped, De-Cat pipe, FBHIC

Worked great. It took about 30 mins ( that includes taking it back part because the flip wasn't powerful enough, it appears to need 3 full turns to be similar to standard) But now I have a new looking key that works first time

I spent only a few quid on battery and then 15 min replacing it. Piece of cake. Patience and steady hands are needed. I have used gorilla glue for waterproofing.
All done 4 months ago and works beautifully.Disco 3 HSE (55) - gone

I was going to post this link for you but it looks like you got it all sorted. Looks to be similar to the ones I ordered. For anyone else located in the US, the seller I bought mine from was this one:

Have just done 1 of mine, I tried 3 turns on the key blade and destroyed the spring
Luckily the spring from the old fob fits the new case perfectly. Only needed 1 turn for me.06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti

Have just bought two new cases (and batteries) to sort my worn keys out, any recommendations on what glue is best to stick the new cases together?The End

I used superglue, as that was what I had
A couple of cable ties to keep the shells together while the glue set seemed to do the trick.06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti

+1 for the superglue and cable ties. Still holding together well, it's not often I go swimming with my car keys on me so no need for any mastic or sealant over here

I've not got round to gluing mine & they're just fine without tbh, not had any problems with either of them.
If you haven't glued them together Landie71 have you got cable ties on them permanently? Or did you buy the click together version I spotted on ebay (but avoided as they cost more and didn't have the LR logo on them)?The End

Just clipped them together, would have glued them if I could have been bothered to get some glue out of the garage (& they've got the logo on too - they were these ones: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fits-RANGE-ROVER...rmvSB=true if that helps?)
