The unlock button on my key fob is broken - the rubber has flapped loose and the microswitch is missing. It all works - locking is fine, and for that set I have to use keyless access.....
Can it be repaired, or replaced (and cheaply?)

RRUK on the forum used to do them but no more, he can supply a blank key and new case, if yours is working ok you can transfer your electronics over and get the blade cut, £10 for the blank, dont know about the cutting I would think £10 to £20, you can also get them on flea bay but dont know the quality.
I was looking for a replacement one for my sons car but ended up having to get a quote from LR as they apparently are the only ones that can supply the whole thing, unfortunately the keys around £160 and if its to be programmed by LR (which i think you can do yourself) is another £60 so not cheap, needless to say he’s limping along with his old one similar to yours.
Good luck
