How to Change the Shell of an Opel Key Fob

Model: Vauxhall Opel Various
Part: Key

Video tutorial

In this video, see how to change the damaged shell of an Opel key fob; generally, it works the same way for all models: Here is our damaged key fob, and in the meantime, we have obtained a new one, perhaps from Amazon with code B0C2JD94F3 at a price of £8.99, with free delivery for Prime customers.

Use pliers to open the old key fob and completely disassemble it. First, you need to change the neutral key of the new key fob with the key from your car, and for this, you must remove the small spring located inside the retaining bush; then transfer the circuit board and the battery (check if it needs replacing while you're at it). Refit it in place and close the cover.

Job done.
