After my wife's factory remote had been used how ever many thousand times over the last 12 years, the buttons had completely broken out and left the remote useless. This new remote was exactly what we needed, and at a huge savings compared to getting a new one from the dealer. I was able to put the circuit board and key from the old remote into this new one and my wife has a working remote again. She was thrilled!! One thing to note is that if you use your old key, use the old key opening button as well because the new button doesn't seem to fit the old keys.

It was easy to swap the key and board out of my old remote and put it in the new shell. Working great so far a month later. I might need to glue it closed due to it opening a little, but nothing that would warrant a negative review.

Replacing my original was so easy! Quick snap and a screwdriver and Iām all set again.

The fobs were as described and work well, however some kind of instructions or link for a video would have been nice to have. I did find a video someone had done for similar covers that did help. I have the ability to change them no problem, but the original ones are bonded together and have to be destroyed to get them apart. I know the old ones are going in the trash, but not knowing they are glued together makes it challenging to figure out. Otherwise seems Iike a great product

They work perfect for this year/year's vehicle. Will say that they need instructions on replacing the original key fob though, as you do have to bust them open to replace, (I used needle nosed pliers) As you do so, make sure you put the original fob in a large plastic bag so parts that you will use for the new key fob doesn't fly everywhere once you bust it open. You will use the little control board inside your old key fob to place in the new one, I used the push button from the old one as it was a tad longer than the new own, works better. **Make sure to turn your key (if you have the flip key, in order for it to pop up when pushing the button, or you will have to pull it out with your finger) Also, make sure that when placing the control board back in, you don't bend when placing it in the new key fob. You can tell if the new key fob won't snap shut 100%.

I had no more rubber for the button. I bought the case. I simply remove the rubber on the new one and put it on my old remote. 1 minute and it's done.

The shell works perfect, no complaints. The most difficult part is taking the old fob apart to access the circuit board and imobilizer chip. There are plenty of online videos. I used a soldering iron to gradually get the old case apart. Just be patient. If taking small things like this apart is not your thing find someone who is to do it. Damaging the electronics is going to leave you with a brick.

My old key fob worked perfectly until the buttons cracked and fell off. I bought this keyfob, took the circuit board and key blade out of my old key fob, and put it in the new one. It won't work. There was not an immobilizer chip in the old keyfob. I don't know if the circuit board is bad or if the battery isn't making contact. The new keyfob does not like staying together. I would normally super glue the two halves of the keyfob, if it worked.

They worked with no need to program to my car- yay! Which is good, since the QR code link didn't have instructions for my make/model/year. Found a great video online for assembly instructions so was able to assemble with no problem. One of the key points of the video I used was to insert the old (and the new) fob into a bag before using the pliers to open it. Definitely do this! The parts kind of explode out of the fob once opened. The bag keeps them all in one place.

The ONLY issue i had was closing the the new shell after assembly.It worked perfectly and my old key fit inside this shell as well, and the new uncut key will be saved until i need a new one cut. The old transponder fit perfectly and had no issues with the item itself, whatsoever.Notes:- If your old key fob says "KIA" on it, it is the factory fob and may have a tiny black chip that you will need to move to the new shell.- If your old fob has a tiny screw on the back, save the screw just in case, my new one didn't need it but better safe than sorry.- Make sure your transponder is working before assembling new fob. If your transponder doesn't work, then you need to buy a working one from the dealer or locksmith or you wont be able to start your car.- Make sure you WIND UP the key-spring ONCE or it wont pop out when you press the button to eject the key.FYI, i am no mechanic but I have experience with keyfobs and circuit boards.

Note: This is just the plastic case and blank key. The product's website helps you find a locksmith to program and cut the new key. However, only the case on my 2013 Kia Soul FOB was broke, the circuit board and everything else inside was fine. So, in my case, after watching several YouTube videos , I was able to take apart my broken FOB and transfer the old circuit board and old key into the new case.Granted, I am not the most graceful person doing detailed work, so I accidentally shot the spring across the room and scared the crud out of my cat who leaped into the air and grabbed the curtains and swung across the room tearing them down into a ball. Then he picked the spring up and took off into the living room with it. After chasing him down I managed to trade catnip for my spring, and was able to successfully install my old circuit board, spring and key into the new case and it works perfectly! No programming or locksmith necessary, although I did need bandages from wrestling the spring away from my cat. I suggest you watch several Youtube videos and try to lock your cat out of the room before you begin work.
