    Getting key section out of old fob

    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.

    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?
