Key Fob Case Shell Fit for Ford Explorer Edge Mustange Fusion 5 Buttons Replacement Keyless Entry Remote Smart Key Fob Cover Casing with Button Pad & Uncut Key Blade Blank

I put the internals from my other key in this and it worked! Saved me a bunch of money over buying a new key

I rate this as a five star, because it was just what I needed, but there are two minor points to mention. First, in the original fob casing there is a small foam pad that presses against the microprocessor. There is no pad in the replacement, so I scraped the original off and super glued it into place. Second, there is a thin flexible plastic divider that separates the two batteries, that was not included with the new shell. I removed the old divider and put it in the new shell, but I was unable to secure the divider to the plastic swivel pin that secured it in the original, but I don't think there is any problem with leaving unsecured in the new shell.

I got this used so… i’m not complaining too much. I was able to use the metal key holder part that was broken from my own fob. I did not use the back or front of the one I purchased because the little parts that hold on the key holder were broken when I got it. Thankfully, I was able to put the metal part into mine. It is does take some doing to figure out how to get it secured.The fob came with the metal key holder taped on. Initially I thought that was so it wouldn’t fall out when I opened the fob. As it turns out, nothing was holding it there but the tape even when the fob was clicked shut.I just paid $13 + tax so I think I did pretty good.

I was able to set up my key easilyInner board fits well inside the shell

Had to rate this one 1 star. My husband and I both tried but it was too hard to assemble and click closed. Never worked.Then I found a fob cover that just slid right on.

The product overall seems pretty good and durable. Unfortunately the original case (Ford), has these little details built in that are not obvious to these third parties. The worse time I had was having the batteries CR2025, stay in place like they did in the original case. They kept popping out no matter how many times I removed and replaced. It was tricky and took a long time before I was able to take the top piece and place it over the battery part which is not the way to put back together, because it is usually the opposite. This way, it held the batteries upright which allowed me to place the larger front cover over just right to slip over, hold the batteries and click together. Of course this took numerous tries. I dread now having to change the batteries. It will not be any fun nor a quick change and go.

This is the second case I’ve purchased on Amazon and this is the closest to OEM that I’ve found. There are no instructions of how to put it together, which has lead others to complain that it’s hard to put together. However after close examination and trial and error, You Have to take everything apart! First with all the pieces connect the top (where the key ring goes through the fob) and connect it to the center piece that holds the battery. The bottom of the key fob case then slides in and snaps to the center piece of the Fob that has the batteries. Third, insert the electronic board in the silicone (with the battery contacts up) and put it in the Fob case that has the buttons on it. Finally, if you have everything together snuggly, the front and back of the Fob case will snap together by starting where the key ring holder is and then pressing it together. Hope this helps someone.

I broke my key ring loop on my original 2017 Ford Explorer keyfob, and ordered this to repair it. Taking the old fob apart, getting the parts out I needed, and putting them into the new fob took less than 5 minutes. However, the 1st time, it was hard to get the new key fob closed. But once I got it closed the 1st time, it seems like I've had no real trouble opening and closing it since, such as when I recently had to change the battery. This saved me a couple hundred dollars compared to going to the dealer to get a new key. I highly recommend this kit.

The most important thing is, it works without falling apart...Other than that, I have several gripe on the product. First the silicone used with the case is too opaque, so you can barely see your LED light when you use your key to start the car to confirm success.Second, the battery compartment is way too snug and lack the separator/indicator for the batteries completely. This same part of the housing all lack the foam to cushion the PCB coil, so I'm unsure of how the PCP will endure shocks in this housing.All in all, it works. But heh, not really quality especially for the asking price.
