Glad to read youve had a positive experience, shows that by doing a bit of research and astute purchasing you can get what you want.

On past occasions I've had the fob casings replaced by the local LR dealership as part of a std service. note this was only for the fob outer as the rubber had delaminated from the casing. From memory it was only about $20. My current fobs are doing the same again, seems they last about 2.5 years, so i will check with them again and report back.

So true. I literally order a new case with each set of filters each year.
