With the key fob prices going crazy, I'm just looking for a soft cover that would fit over mine - it works but has a broken key loop.

Has anyone found a cover that would fit over our style of fob that includes it's own key loop?

 

I recently purchased two different fob covers on eBay to protect my precious fobs. Both were found on eBay and purchased from the same source in Germany. They arrived quickly and both are high quality. One is silicon and the other is leather. Both would work with your broken top part, particularly the leather one, which is shown in a photo from another poster on this site. The company starts with the letters ky..... There is one problem,however. When the cover is on and inserted into the ignition ,the added size around the key is a tight fit. It tends to turn the rubber and the chrome rings around the key slot....Which just happens to the attached to the antenna wire that goes to the Skree m. The cases tend to cause the chrome and rubber rings to turn back and forth when starting the car.....not a good thing as the site can eventually break. It is shame because the leather one is particularly nice. The only way around this is to use the silicon one for protecting the key and peeling it back when inserting it in the ignition.

 

All that matters is the gutz. I rebuilt one of mine with a new case and key blank from eBay. U$6.52. Kept the original back cover for the crest.

 

 

I thought I read here that the case is glued tightly together and that
​​​​​​ often the parts go flying out in pieces all over the place when you attempt to open it. With new ones going for between $670 -$840 for a replacement, I would not attempt to open my old , beat up one. I am glad it worked out well for you two gentlemen, though. Even if a person is sucessful in replacing the case, you still should cover the fob. One drop of an uncovered fob can cause issues. Just my opinion.

I just want to point out that the aftermarket replacement is not perfect. The batteries are loose compared to the original and the panic button is really hard (I am not kidding, it feels like it doesn't want to be pressed).

 

Well mine came apart relatively easily using the knife method and gentle persuasion. Wish I had taken a picture of the circuit board with the RFID chip sticking out the end (goes in the red "lens".

 

 

You feel the click and see the led light up twice when it's pressed hard. It looks exactly like the picture
