First dismantle the flip fob, only one would dismantle without sawing.

Grind away most of the insides, strip down source fob and grind that down as much as possible.

I do screw and glue them - I can break them apart if I have any issues.

Earlier Ashtray keys require the side of the fob to be machined back as well.

I job I'd for myself just for the challenge.  But simply won't bother, as you end up with a key thats more bulky than you started with.

Martin, how much do you charge for a 3-button fob refurb? My spare is starting to need a really heavy press to get any response.

I had the other one done last year, not sure if that was you, do you get work from eBay?
