- This video is made to help you. We'll show you how to repair your own key, but be warned. The transponder chip is normally glued well into the key. On this video is comes out unusually easily, so don't be fooled.
We fix these every day and we believe you can fix your own if you have the correct tools and a good case.
Here is an Amazon link that will show you the case and pin punch that we use at our shop for all our local customers

**WARNING** If you break the chip, the car will not start, so only attempt this if you have a spare, or you are really brave. We use a soldering iron to melt the plastic, so please be careful if you do this. A hot soldering iron touching the bone after slipping with it, really hurts....
If you would like us to fix your key by post, follow the link to find out more..

If you have an American Rio, you may not have a chip in the key.
Good luck!

Can’t thank you enough for this video-had some trouble getting the pin out, but otherwise, such an easy fix. And you saved me $300! Thanks again!
You're welcome. These keys have been designed and manufactured so poorly, it's not right that you should have to get a new key. We always try and re-use the electronics when we can. Glad it helped
How did you get the pin out ?
Your instructions were spot on. The tip about filing the existing key was a lifesaver. I got it all back together like a champ. Thanks for a great video
Thanks Al, really pleased it helped :)
I thank you sir, I ordered a new fob body, completely destroyed the old fob getting the board out. put everything in the new body. doors would lock and unlock, but car would not start! I ended up buying a new fob from the dealer and having him program it! $ 400 later...I watch your video a few years later, there it was, didn't realize that little chip was inside, thought it was on the circuit board. I changer the body on the 2nd fob, as buttons were worn out, and it all works! Thankyou!! God bless!
That's great stuff. It's a very common mistake that happens, so well done on getting teh second key fixed ok
Thank you so much! This was super helpful. I got lucky, once i finally got the case opened the chip and the transponder flew on the table. That felt like a miracle after i saw how difficult it is to get the transponder from the old case. Awesome!
Thanks for the feedback, good to hear the chip just dropped out!
I struggled the whole morning trying to figure out what in the world was exactly the problem with my new key! you’re a legend thanks so much
You're welcome Ivan, glad it helped you :)
Very useful. In the oficial car shop (KIA) a new key cost 234€. I have bought one case of key in Alliexpress for 3€. With your video I have changed the chip and the rest of the mechanism to the new case and the result is fantastic. Thank you very much from Spain.
Hi Manuel, that is great news. The new dealer keys are very expensive and poor quality unfortunately. Well done :)
Thanks a lot car key man! I didn't have all the tools you've had at your disposal, but I was nevertheless able to change my two keys having watched your video at least 3 times. Very clear step by step explanation and very clear video. Saved me something like 250€ each (in France) + reprogramming (labor expenses). Net estimated gain: 550€ for the two keys.
Well done :)
You are amazing! Thank you so much for this video. A careless mechanic's apprentice broke my key open and the flip wasn't flipping anymore. Ruined my day yesterday until I came online to get help and found your amazing video guide. I love you man. Can't thank you enough for this wonderful help. Joy just came back into my heart. So thankful and wish you all the best for your kindness.
Hi Chuck, oh no, it sounds like you had a bad day! Glad this helped you :)
Wow this saved me a fortune. The pliers is such a good trick to crack it open, it was impossile otherwise. I was following a different video that didn't mention moving the transponder/immobilizer so that was fun not knowing why my car wouldnt start! Saw your video and transferred it over, lucky I hadn't thrown the old fobs out! Works a treat now, thank you so much!
The buttons on my remote for the car were chipped off because I made the mistake of using my thumbnail to push the buttons. I went to the dealer figuring all they had to do was replace the case. but they said they would have to order in a new remote and then program it to match the car. They gave me a quote of several hundred dollars!!! Insane! I took a look on CZcams and found this video and then found a dealer on eBay selling the case. I followed the instructions in the video except for one small change. I didn't have a soldering iron hot enough to melt the plastic to remove the transponder so I used a rotary sanding disk and gently sanded the plastic on the back of the old case until I could see the back of the transponder and then just pushed it out.
Your video and step by step instructions were excellent and easy to follow. I would not have been able to do it without this video. Thank you!! The only difference was my case and the new one didn't have a screw as described at the end of the video, the case just snapped together.
Hi John, thanks for this really excellent summary of how you swapped your case, I'm sure it will help other viewers. Glad you saved that money ;)
Mate, thank you so much for this video! The pin fell out ages ago (found a quick fix), then the hinge broke (as a result of the quick fix). Called up Hyundai and a replacement key was going to cost AUD$400+, then I went and bought the case kit and had a go myself. Had to file down my old blade a bit but then I was able to knock the pin in, and now it works! Legend! 🙌🏻 Fingers crosses it holds up!
Hi Natalie, you're welcome. Well done getting yourself up and running again and thanks so much for the comment ;)
Thank you!!! This video helped me replace my 2011 Kia Soul case. The key broke just like in the video and the dealer wanted $400 Candian for a new key! I initially glued the key back in with Gorilla glue until I realized I could purchase just the empty shell. I purchased one for $2.99 USD from China off ebay and was unsure if it would ever arrive, but once it did I searched and found this amazing video!!! The hardest part was opening the original KIA case. I think my key was actually a solid mold, so I had to heat the plastic and cut it open! The 2nd hardest part was removing the pin for the key. I actually had to take it to a Jeweller, who had to heat the metal to get the pin out. He put my old key in, and replaced the pin with a new one for $5. I was so thrilled when I put everything together and it worked!! I was afraid I might have damaged the circuit board when I was trying to cut the case open, but everything works like a charm! THANK YOU for making this video and putting it out there.
Really pleased it all worked out ok Marsha, thank you for the feedback :)
Really helpful, if I had not viewed the video I wouldn't have known about the hidden chip which fortunately wasn't glued to the old case. Brilliant work guys.
That's great Len, pleased it helped :)
Thanks for your help, it was a bit fiddly but I got there in the end and now have a brand new key at very low cost.
You're welcome John, glad you managed to do it :)
BRILLIANT. Just done this for my 2010 Cee'd, worked a treat, am off to get the new blank keys cut (blanks cost £3.50 each off Ebay) - opening the old keys was a nightmare, they'd been glued shut so the case broke, fortunately the transponder wasn't glued at all! Fantastic work, guys.
That's great , yes sometime the chip just drops out! Glad you got it sorted :)
Fhd ijgvhvgje
Thanks very much, this worked for me.
I have a 2008 i30 cw (wagon) in Australia.
The key had broken exactly where the one in the video had broken.
I got the new key case from ebay for a few dollars.
The transponder chip just fell out and had a small plastic clip holding it in. No glue, no soldering iron.
I still had to file down the groove, that was the scary bit.
There wasn't a video of removing the pin, which was also tricky, but I found a nail the right size and I was gentle with it.
Had to practice a bit to get it all back together, but watched it a few times and it eventually worked.
Well done, we'll have to make a video on how to remove the pin. Thanks for the feedback and glad you got it done ok :)
Thanks for the great video! I really appreciate you sharing your know-how. As a note to others, not all keys appear to have the transponder chip. The key for my 2012 Soul didn't. I transferred the electronics, key blade, mount, and spring from the old, broken shell to the new, $7 shell and it all worked perfectly.
HI Scott, thansk for the info. I forgot to mention this way back when I made the video. Many cars for the US market seem to have the chip missing!
Thanks for this...the only one out of three videos I saw that firstly showed the best way to open and secondly bothered to mention the transponder chip.....which saved me a very expensive mistake!
Yes a few people throw the old case away with the chip inside. Really appreciate the feedback and thanks for watching :)
This video was really really helpful. I changed the case of my Kia Cee'd SW 2010 key, everything exactly as shown in this video, except that the transmitter came out easily without need for soldering iron. The replacement (from AliExpress) fitted well, except for the key groove which needed filing as explained in this video. Original key didn't have a screw; replacement key had a screw; presumably to stop it falling apart. Thanks again.
Thanks Adrian, glad the chip came out easily :)
Your video is amazingly simple and didatic! Have just fixed my two keys (the main and the spare one) Congrats, and keep with the good work helping people accross the world, man! Thank you a lot!
Hi Ze, thanks for the feedback. I love the word 'didatic' which I had to look up! You are very kind. I'm pleased it helped you. We see so many broken Kia and Hyundai keys every week, it's just not good enough that they break so easily. Take care and thank You again
Thanks a lot for this tutorial! Just successfully fixed my key, the deepening of the groove was mildly annoying with my dremel but it ended well. My carkey has been falling apart for years, rubber top completely crumbled out and such, but some days ago I opened my key and the keyblade shot out from the holder akin to what Call of Duty games sell people as "ballistic knives" haha
Good job with the Dremel ;) Glad it helped and thanks for the feedback
We are too grateful, managed to put it together, on a Hunday Elantra!! Have a nice day, from Budapest, Hungary!! :-)
Hi Kis, just seen this, thanks for watching :)
Brilliant tip about the soldering iron! Struggled for ages to try and get the chip out, then found your video and simples! Thank you! 😊
Great stuff Lynne, glad it helped :)
i tried figuring it out on my own, what got me was the "TWISTing the spring" part for my 2013 kia. thank you a million!
Yes a bit tricky the first time, but really pleased it helped you :)
@@TheCarKeyManHow do you get the pin out?
Thanks so much for the educational video. You just saved me $180.00 & I was able to switch the keyfob under 5 mins. 😊😊😊
You're welcome, that's why we make them :)
thanks so much for this video, I was able to replace my Remote thingiiiii with no trouble at all....thanks again...I would just like to add that I am an 78year old woman....us oldies can do stuff too...
Well done Marie, really pleased you managed to get it fixed :)
Amazing tutorial, made it so easy to take apart the old key and rebuild the new one!
Great stuff Martijn, really pleased it helped you :)
Thank you so much for this video. I was able to follow your instructions and VOILA! New key. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
Well done for getting it fixed :)
Thanks so much. I had no idea about the transponder; the soldering trick worked a treat to remove that.
Great stuff Paul, glad it helped and thanks for the comment :)
Thank you sooo much, you just saved me $330.00 Plus Taxes. I had never done anything like this before, you just made it look so easy so I ordered the case & now it's working Great, Thanks Again I am so happy I have my remote working again :) . Have a Good Day!
Hello Gatita, so pleased it helped and you have a working key! Well done :)
You're an absolute lifesaver. I thought I had found the transponder, but it turned out to just be a plastic cover. Was about to give up and fork out the $400+ for the new key when I found your video. Legend.
Nice one Chris, glad you found it. Lots of people think they are just part of the plastic case
Thanks for the feedback
Thanks for this. The blade came out of my key as you demonstrated in the video but the rest of the fob was all good. There was no need to transfer the transponder and circuit board to the new fob, I simply put the old blade back into the old fob just using the new button and blade holder
Nice one, they don't normally transfer over..glad it all worked out
@@TheCarKeyMan This is the comment that I was looking for. My fob is fine, it's just the cracked connector to the blade. So as I only have one key to begin with, I'm a lot more confident about just replacing the blade and not transfering everything over to a new casing. Thanks for the comment and the video, both of you!
Awesome video, saved me a ton of money, Kia Canada wanted $500 for a new fob which is extortionate, I destroyed the old fob getting it apart, it simply didn't want to let go! But the immobilizer chip popped right out, had to fight a lot and swear a lot to get the spring tension on the button, but I got there in the end!
Well done Mark, the price of Kia and Hyundai keys is crazy, so really pleased this helped :)
Found out by myself the transponder chip after failling the first time, checked your video after but I'm glad you mentioned the chip because some other videos dont even mention it, thanks for your video
Hi, you're welcome. Most people find out the hard way, after the rubbish has been collected and the chip is gone forever!
Good work Steve I'm normally crap at DIY best of times but even I managed to follow your step by step saved me £100+ this video many thanks🙌🙌
Well if you managed this, you certainly are not crap at DIY! It can be fiddly so you've done really well :)
I have just done this and if it wasn't for watching your video I would never have known about the hidden chip. Many thanks Car Key Man.
Thanks for the feedback, yes the chip is easily missed!
Great video, took me 6 hours to open the case because some bright spark (cretin) glued the whole case together! Two blisters and three stab wounds later, I have a perfectly functional key! Thanks!
Sounds about right!...Glad you got there in the end
Hahah same my hands are bleeding
Hi Steve, thanks very much for your excellent training video, The local key company asked me for £50.00 for the key parts plus extra to fit it all. I obviously refused and bought a key kit online for £6.00. took me about 45 mins following your instructions. Thanks Again excellent.
Great stuff Brian, if you're handy then it;s great to save some money :)
Thank you for your help. So much money saved! this is CZcams at its best: sharing useful information far and wide
Agree, CZcams is a great place and we use it all the time. Thanks for watching :)
@@TheCarKeyMan I do have one question: the aftermarket case I purchased has no screw to tighten the case, so the key blade is quite loose. Any suggestions for tightening up the case?
Very helpful ! Very easy ! Thank you mate.
You're welcome, well done!
thanks for the tip pf using soldering iron to remove the chip as I was lost and with no idea how I am going to remove it for the Kia picanto key.
thumbs up😉
Excellent talk thru, many thanks for taking the time to do this.
You're welcome, thanks for the feedback :)
hey mate, you have saved my life mate, thank you.
You're welcome, glad it helped you :)
Hi Steve, Kia wanted $350.00 for a new key fob. I purchased a new blank o e from Amazon for $6.50, followed your directions and have a new key fob. Thank you for you information. Very helpful information. Cheers!!!
That's great John, Kia and Hyundai prices are a bit steep here in the UK too. Really glad it helped :)
Thank you. Perfect step by step instructions.
You're welcome Luigi, thanks for the comments :)
Thanks for the great instructions. Worked great to replace both keys. In our case the chip was glued close to the battery but was easy to remove and place it in the new key. I used the old keys so we did not have to had those made.
One more comment. For both keys the dealer was going to charge us 100 US dollars each. I paid 13 dollars, including shipping, here in the Philippines
Hi Derk, thanks for the feedback, glad it helped you save some money :)
Took my wife's key apart on her 2011 Kia Soul, I found no chip. Kept the fob motherboard in the house, took only the key for the ignition and it started. So keep in mind you may not have a chip.
Hi Joseph, yes I didn't know this hen I made it but I'm guessing you live in the States? Not sure why a few of your models don't have chips, but every now and then we get a comment like yours. Thanks for letting me know :)
Thank you. Same car here and I'm not good at repairing things.
What tool did u use to get the pin out of the sliver key part
@@TheCarKeyManah, that's where the recall and the whole trend happened
And if you are in Australia, there IS a Chip, only the cover cap is white...which confused me and eventually I had to look for the chip in the bin right before the rubbish collect car😂
Thanks for posting this, just bought a fob + tools from you on Amazon
Thanks Jeff, really appreciate the feedback :)
the transponder chip part at around 2 minutes saved my butt as i was very confused why the car would tick but not turn over until i saw this. thank you very much for this, saved me a quoted £175
You're very welcome Ashley, glad it helped you :)
Nice video. Didn't see this before I replaced mine. I ended up using my Dremel to take apart the plastic part. It worked but I really should have just been a little more forceful when pushing to get the top and bottom apart. Was afraid I would break the electronics. But, after all, it worked.
Hi, good skills on the dremel, well done ;)
Many thanks for your video. I tried it. Tiny screw was awkward and removing chip was definitely not easy.. But with your video it worked out for me.. cheers.
That's great Chris, well done :)
Thank you, very useful instructions. In my key the keypad was damaged - don't press the buttons with long nails! I had to use a lot of force to open the original key - the parts seemed to be glued together and the chip wasn't glued on at all so I nearly lost it when the parts scattered all over the room when it finally popped open. But the rest was easy as the chip didn't have to be cut out.
Hi Vicky, yes the case is normally glued and can take alot to open it, did you manage to use the pliers that we use? It's funny but you can never tell which chip are going to be glued in and which aren't
Great video. Prying case open with pliers helped and I would have missed the chip altogether, thinking it was inside the cover thingy that comes out easily.
Thanks for the feedback :)
Also used pliers. This was hardest part - had to use a lot of force and thought there might be existing screw under Kia logo (there wasn't). Rest was straight forward. Very clear video and tips. Thanks very much!
Thanks for the video. Well explained . Got the job done thanks to your video !
Thanks for watching Remko :)
Perfect. Thanks a lot. That´s the issue I had. Forgot all about the chip. TOP! Thanks a lot. I didn´t use the soldering iron, but carefully cut away the botom of the old flipcase, until I hit superglue. Little pressure with a punch and out cam the chip.
Well done, they can be tricky. Thanks for the comment :)
omg this was SUCH A BIG HELP!
You're welcome :)
Thank you so much you saved me exactly $746.00AUD. The ripoff Kia agent was going to charge me $275.00AUD for each fob and $117.00AUD to reprogram each fob.That's $784.00AUD. I purchased two fobs for $9.00 each + $20 postage and handling.that's $38.00AUD + 2 minutes to watch your video and copy the steps. Thanks again Great stuff
This is why we make these videos. The prices that dealers are charging, when what they sell is flawed is just criminal. Really glad it has helped
@@TheCarKeyMan And why do you think the dealers charge so much? So they can make more money, that’s why!
This video helped me so much. Thank you so much for sharing.
You're welcome, really glad it helped you :)
Thanks for the GREAT video, our case swap went easy.
Well done, did the chip come out ok?
no problems
Brilliant video so accurately described thanks just saved me €250
Thanks Paul :)
Mate you're a bloody legend! Thanks so much
You're welcome Steven, thanks for watching :)
They want 40 £ to fix my key and I need to change 2 keys that means 80 £ this video helps me I bought 2 keys from eBay 7 £ both and I did it Thanks too much thank you man 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great video, all the buttons on both my fobs had broken. Now I have two new shiny fobs cheers 👍
Great stuff Ryan, glad it helped :)
Thanks for posting. Thumbs up from me. I was having a tough time trying to open up the fob. After watching your video, I used some regular pliers and forced it open (feeling lucky I didnt break anything). I did not have the reverse pliers that you have.
Well done, it's always good to hear when our viewers adapt and use what's available. Did the chip come out ok?
I dug into that thing and got to the bottom and found no chip! Then I did some research and found out that Kia didnt have one. I felt foolish wasting time on it, but everything worked out.
Are you in America?
Yes I am in the US ..... The Kia Soul that we have does not have a transponder chip. It was built in 2012. I should have researched that before digging.
Hi, thanks. Yes the Kia Soul is different to all the others, I didnt realise that, as you now know , there is no chip, sorry
Great video saved me a fortune, pin was a bit hard to get out . But did it in the end thankyou
Well done, yes sometimes the pins are tight, other times nice and easy. Glad it helped and you got it sorted :)
Great info thank you. I found that my 2011 Kia Soul had NO transponder. I was going cra tearing the old case up till I googled it and found that some cars actually did not have one. I tried the remote without it and it worked! Fyi..
Thanks JT, a few peole have struggled to find the transonder, are you in USA?
Yes, If I had a transponder I would have been able to get it out with your video though. Thanks!
Ah I can continue on with my repair then! I was panicking looking everywhere for it!!
My 2011 doesn't have one either! I had a key made without the remote and no chip, and the car starts right up.
I just had the same experience with my 2013 Soul. I got freaked out for a moment but was relieved when the key worked fine.
Clear & perfect guide. Thanks a million for this video. Luckily i could use my old blade with added super glue on pin as couldn't budge the new pin.
Thanks for the kind words Jonathan :)
No chip in my 2011 Kia Soul but I was able to put together my new key and the buttons work, thanks to this video.
Thanks for the info, is it a US model?
I sure wish my keys came apart as easily as yours did in this video! :) Fortunately, my keys didn't have the transponder chip, so I didn't have to deal with that part, but Kia glued these things to within an inch of their life. I ended up using a Dremel tool (that's a brand name here in the states for a hand-held rotary tool; they may call them something else over there in the UK) to very carefully saw the shell apart along the seams a millimeter at a time.
Once I got it apart, though, putting it back together was no trouble, thanks to this video, aside from the usual problems of trying to hold spring-loaded parts together in the right position while you snap the shell back together. :)
You must have had a steady hand! well done. Yes occasionally we come across a tough one, not sure why, maybe they had some glue to use up!
Thanks! Transponder chip was not glued, so it was very easy!
I'm always happy when they chip drops out! I wonder if they ran out of glue one day in the key factory...well done on getting it fixed :)
This video, and the other one on the later type of key are both excellent.
I have found with my wife's i30, earlier type, that after a lot of use, the rubber button pad gets very worn, so badly that there were holes in it. So I bought a spare shell for about $10, thinking I would replace the shell entirely. However, I found that the rubber pad was not glued in to the spare, and could be very easily got out with a toothpick. Then I removed the residue of the broken one, again with a toothpick. I cleaned off the slight amount of glue residue on surfaces inside the shell that the pad sticks to with isopropyl alcohol. Then I fitted the new rubber pad, using a tiny, tiny amount of Loctite gasket sealer as the adhesive. It's as good as new now. If this is the only problem with the old key, it's a much better solution to do this rather than replace the whole shell.
I wouldn't have had the confidence to do this though if I hadn't studied these videos first.
OK, thanks for giving our readers another option :)
Just perfect! - Thank you so much, Mr. Car Key Man! ;O))))))))
You're welcome, thanks for the feedback :)
Excellent video - you rock!
Thanks Yotam :)
Thanks, my case broke in two when I tried using the snap ring rings. It appears it was glued or plastic welded at Kia factory, but the chip came out easy though. FYI 2013 Kia Canada has transponder chips, identical US version do not.
Hi Rory, Yes the original keys are glued together. That's good that the chip just fell out. I'm not sure why some of the US cars don't have a chip when the Canadian models do. Seems strange to me. All of the UK cars have chips these days!
Rory; Did you have to use a specific tool to get the chip out? I have a 2013 Kia Rio5 in Canada.
Great video, just fixed my key. I used my old key case, just took the key shoulder off the new case. Thought that was much easier than attempting to fiddle with the chips and board
Hi Tommy, glad it helped. Sometimes the parts don't transfer, but I'm glad it worked :)
Super helpful, just replaced my Kia car fob following this video! Thank you so much
You're welcome, glad it helped :)
Thank you, we couldn’t have done this without your video. :)
You're welcome, really pleased it helped :)
The best of three instructions on youtube. The first works.
Thanks, really appreciate your kind words, glad it helped :)
Done two differnet makes of car thanks to this guy. So thanks guy:)
That's great news, thanks for the support :)
Great Demo thank you very much.
Thanks for the feedback :)
Thanks for your valuable information
You're welcome ;)
Thank you very much for the help...
You're welcome :)
Thank you for your great help to fix my HYUNDAI Key and also batterrie
You're welcome
Many thanks. I would not repaired it without your video.
Well that makes it worthwhile, great to hear that and thanks for taking the time to leave some feedback :)
You saved me $445! Thank you!
Glad it helped, thanks for watching :)
Thank you mate! Did the case bit but couldn't work out why the car wouldn't start but unlocked/locked ok! Cheers from Aus
Great stuff, glad it helped you sort out the problem :)
This video was so perfect, thanks so much
Hi Jack, really pleased it helped you, and thansk for the feedback :)
Great video. Thanks for the tips!!!
You're welcome Chris, glad it helped and thanks for watching :)
Thanks for the help :)
You're welcome Ivona :)
Amazing tutorial, made it so easy to take apart the old key and rebuild the new one! and save a LOT of money
Hi Patrik, thanks for your kind words, really appreciate your feedback :)
Very helpful video. Only bit missing was how to remove the pin that holds the key on the hinge (which is the bit I need to know), but I'll find a way
Hi, you need a pin punch, or something with a diameter less than 1.4mm
Spot on this although since it was just a case of my blade coming out of its case as in the example showed at the beginning of the vid i just put a new casing in for the old blade and didnt mess with the chip. Also instead of filing the groove i found a bit of paper clip pushed through did tge trick
Well done on getting it working Sid :)
thanks for the helpful information ,,id purchased a fob cover but it came without instructions and i missed out the transponder chip ,,,guess who's kia soul wouldn't start lol ..all fixed many thanks
Hi Ian, yes this is very common, glad you got it all sorted out before the rubbish was collected !
Kia Rio 2011 - Had to cut/snap the old outer casing as it was glued shut! and the transponder was glued to the little removable part which was great. thanks for the video!
Well done and thanks for the comments :)
I’m having the same problem! Thank you
I had this issue same model. Keys work engine turning over but wont engage
Thanks for help !
Really glad it helped you :)
Fantastic! I bought a case for less than £10, took around 15 minutes following this video, perfect, thank you
Well done, good job!
Thanks a lot for this video.!!!
Glad it helped :-)
Nice one mate you're the best😁
Thanks, youre welcome
This video is usefull for me, thanks ! i cannot locate chip. I watched the video and was able to locate it.
That’s great news, really pleased it helped :)
For the most part this video is very useful however just a tip for most of the people trying to change instead of burning a whole through the original key to get the transponder off either use a heat gun to melt the glue and a flat screw driver if it's really stubborn or if you like me and just the plastics on the front for the lock and unlock is torn and broken just replace the front of the key and keep the original back intact saves it alot of time..
Thanks for the input, appreciate your feedback :)
