How do I know which replacement case or shell to purchase?
Replacing the exterior case or shell on your car remote or car key needn't be difficult. The 3 main things you need to look at & consider when purchasing a replacement car remote case or car key shell are:
Your Car Brand - Ensure you are looking at replacement shell options that are for your particular brand of car only. The model & year can sometimes help narrow it down but with so many variables within certain years it is best to keep it simple by looking firstly at replacement cases & shells listed under your car's brand & not worrying too much about the model & year. If you have a car alarm installed you will need to be looking for replacement remote case options for the brand of car alarm system you have rather than the brand/make of car you have.
Your original car remote or car key design & shape - Once you have narrowed down your search to those only for your brand of car or car alarm system then you can look at the options available for your particular shell or case design within those for your brand of car or car alarm system. Compare your existing car remote, car alarm remote or car key's front & back & also inside front & back with the photos on our website to narrow down the best matching option/s.
The key blade style on your original car key - Lastly if you are looking for a replacement car key shell rather than a replacement remote case you will need to ensure you select the replacement key shell that has the same blade type as your original key. Once you've narrowed down the options for your car brand & that match closest in design & shape on the front + back & inside front + back to your existing car key you may find you have a couple of options that all look the same. The difference you may not have noticed between these is the key blade design. Make sure you are holding your key with the blade in the same direction & on the side as the photos to check before you order. as some blades also have have a right or left option in their design. If in doubt Contact Us for help & we can assist in ensuring you get the correct replacement car key shell & blade combination.
How do I fit my new replacement car remote case or car key shell?
Fitting the new replacement case or shell is relatively simple. Most car remotes & car keys simply unclip or unscrew to come apart & you can remove the circuit board & chip (if you have a chip) & insert them into the new case or shell & clip or screw the new one back together. Look for any small screws or grooves or indents along the edges of your old remote or car key case to open it & use a flathead screwdriver to gently unclip it. As you are just moving the circuit board over there is no need to reprogram your remote so it will work exactly as it did before you replaced the case.
*Please note if you buy a replacement car key shell with a key blade you will need to take this to your local car key shop to be cut as most are molded into the key shell section.
