2-Button Key Upgrade
#1
Hi guys, thought this might be of interest. My keys (2010 XTR) were well worn at ~50k miles. I've swapped the fob shell for an Amazon UK replacement, swapped the old blade into the new key, swapped the PCB and battery over and added a replacement ebay Citroen logo. While I was at it I lined in the symbols on the key with an Edding paint pan (that I already had) to help identify the buttons in low light. Well pleased with all this for about £6 outlay. I think the same process would work on the 3-Button keys also.

Replaced mine on me 13 plate as the fob failed the drop test.. Smile
