Correct.
It just clips over the fob and choice of colours.
Less confusion now when grabbing keys off the hook at home.

I think it is the newer, smaller style fob tho, right?

Just looked at your original picture.
Same fob but where yours has de laminated the cover won’t be much use.
Previously I got one of these from eBay

Small amount of removal of plastic lugs to remove innards, insert in to new case, melt holding lugs down with a heated screwdriver or soldering iron. Use metal slide off old fob instead of the Range Rover one.

I did a similar thing after my dealer replaced my key shell free of charge a couple of years ago for the delaminated problem.... i bought a couple of silicone covers on eBay to put over my key fobs - provides great protection if you happen to drop them too. I do like yours though!!

I have not had a replacement shell fail so I’ve not bothered with alternatives.

Got one from Mario at Roverlord for a good price... drop him a line...
