I can offer you the service to upgrade your current 5 button key fob to the very latest slimline design.
I've been doing this service via eBay for a while now and recently Martin and I have agreed I will be a "Site Supporter" with revenue from this going back into the forum.
The service involves having to reshape the PCB from your current key to fit the latest key fob, but has the added bonus that it will still go back into the original should you want to revert back. Not a job for the faint hearted but I've done lots of these now including my own and my dad's too (we were the guineau pigs)
Maybe you have a peeling key fob or just want to upgrade.
You get a brand new 5 button Key fob (as used on 2013MY+)
Your spare key blade is stored inside the key
There is NO need to re-programme anything
It will work as normal but be much easier to carry!
I also fit a brand new CR2032 battery for you at the same time
Key fob comes with a new split ring too
You send me a key and I will post back First Class Signed for guaranteed by 1pm next day.
Total cost £49 per key. PM me to get things going.
NB: Key must work, I can't fix PCB errors or re-programme.
(I can also renew your LR 3 button key fob as used on Discovery 3s, Range Rover Sport and some L322 RRs - see my other advert.)

Will the lettering on the silver bit at the side say "Land Rover" rather than "Range Rover"?

Can you reverse engineer this so that a post MY13 PCB will fit into the older 5 button remote?

I am awaiting a delivery of the blank sided versions, there was never a Land Rover branded version, only Range Rover or blank.
Yes in theory the newer slim version can be reverse engineered into the larger 5 button fob. I don't have stock of these right now, but can get some in.

Having looked into the reverse engineering method of turning the newer fob into the older one, it's not financially feasible. The older fobs are very expensive to purchase.
