Key Fob Refurb/Replace

Our key fobs are falling apart, the toddler has finally killed one, ripping off the rubber.

Are these easy to refurb or replace as a DIY job?

Cheers,

Chris

Same here Big Cry the rubber cover has nearly come completely off. I'm going to have a go on the weekend at peeling the rubber part off, spraying both fob and back of rubber with glue then sitting it on a ballon filled with flour to get the contours right with some weight on top.

Fingers crossed

I've bought a Freelander key from eBay (£10) as it looked the same, hopefully it'll fit somehow.

I did mine myself the other day with the above kit listed on eBay.... its not hard to do but you need to be careful not to damage the gasket or lose some little bits when you crack/break the old one open Shocked .... theres a vid on youtube showing how to do it.

That's the newer case I don't think they are as robust as the older one !
And I dont know if you can transfer the insides from older to newer case ...... but stand to be corrected ?
