Note: the parts shells sales listings change from year to year. I have used the 3 button shells amazon sells without issues. I search for the most current listings there and go with what they have.

Here's my original write-up:
DIY: Key Fob button rebuild/refresh
The problem I ran into was that the retainer holding the buttons had to be cut out of the replacement shell. Does the retainer on the ones from Amazon come out the same as the Z or do they have to be cut out? Thanks.


BTW, great write-up on your DIY. I've done several fobs over the years, this is the first one that's given me grief.
