Getting key section out of old fob

[land864]

I have a new key fob but am having lots of trouble getting the key section out of the old fob.
The online video makes it look easy , just and easy pull out job with a bit of a wiggle
Not so easy in real life
Any hints or suggestions please

Put the blade in a vice, and pull.
Unless yours has been glued in. Mine had, and I had to chisel it out after the plastic bit broke off the blade.

Should just pull out, mine fell out a few times so I araldited it in so I wouldn't loose it.
Maybe your has been glued in also?

In case you break the case ( pardon the pun) getting the old key out, i just bought a replacement case on ebay from this mob, $2.99 inc Delivery , I'm still waiting for it to arrive. You reuse the existing electronics inside from your old one.

I recently bought one, they are ok just, the plastic is of poor quality and the buttons are a bit hard, not that flex felling you have with the original. had to alter the casing as it was touching the micro switch constantly. saying that it is good as a spare.

It has Valeo stamped on the shaft, just like mine, or is mine a non original?

The chinese are good at copying stuff, I bought one years ago from China ans it had Valeo stamped on it. Just like rolex watches and other fake stuff.

I got one of those Chinese Rolex watches. Bought it whilst in China. Works fine and has 8yrs obit now.

Have to say, my LayBans have been awesome.

Well it arrived today and what a piece of cheap quality crap. The push buttons are made of hard plastic, not soft like the originals.
