Replacement Keyless Remote Fob Key Shell Case Replacement Fit For Mazda RX-8 5 6 Miata MX-5 Miata CX-7 BGBX1T458SKE11A01

The new cover works great! However, the old cover takes extremely great care, patience, ingenuity, and an x-acto knife, to remove! My old remote case was damaged around the “lock” button and the circuit board was exposed. It may take a couple of tries or days to carefully remove so I suggest you have your spare key ready to use! I repeat: take extremely great care to do this, otherwise you’ll damage the small circuit board in the old remote. On the old remote, the hardest part will be scraping away at the plastic that embeds the battery prongs. They must be freed and you must be careful NOT to break them where they attach to the circuit board!

Garbage doesn’t close

The media could not be loaded. Okay so I bit more of a mission then I thought it was going to be. When take your old key apart start with laying down with the buttons up. In the bottom left corner you can take a out a rubber peice to take the battery out. After they kindly try to open it. You need the chip inside just remember. After you get done fighting with that you will need a sodering gun and some glue/ Inhasiv. Next you will need to burn the plastic around the two metal pieces then went to your battery. Eaiset way is to go from the back side of the metal and pry it slowly away from the melting plastic. Then you should be fine to start slowly pulling your chip out. After that it's will be a breeze. Taken the old chip into the new plastic and adding some type of glue or inhasiv. I haven't try to glue it yet since I'm writing this review while I'm doing the key. If you feel the key holder is janky your not wrong haven't came up with an idea for that yet but to put a rubber band around and by a silicone case for the key fob. Hope this helps someone.

Husband's car remote was falling apart. Changed it to this and it worked perfectly!

This is not a replacement key but a shell to allow you to give your old key fob a facelift! You will need to be pretty tech savvy or at least careful when you remove the old parts from the original credit card key. It is very easy to ruin the fragile parts from the old key but everything fit perfect in this shell when I took things out of the old key. I did have to resolder the battery terminal on the old electrics due to it already being broken but a little mending and everything works well. I would buy this piece again!

Did not work for me.

Disliked that there were no instructions included. NO LINK TO INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE NEW SHELL OR TAKE APART OLD SHELL TO GET THE CIRCUT BOARD OUT. There's no videos for help on YouTube, Ebay or Google because I searched and searched. Anyone have a link please forward it to me.

The size is pretty good, everything works fine after the switch. However the plastic piece inside the case didn’t have the write cut out for the battery connector. It is not fitting smoothly around where the battery goes. Looks like I will have to get another one.
