I'm after a replacement single key fob button.

There's various copy keyfobs available on eBay such as:

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=151220330648

My intention would be to discard the actual shell and just use the button in the original fob shell.

My question is - has anyone purchased similar, and if so could they confirm if the button fits an OE shell?

Obviously I could use the whole new shell and button - but I'd like to use the original if possible.

    Just a thought, but do Peugeot not sell the buttons individually?

    That's a good question.

    And you are right, it appears they do.

    Part number 9926FA £6.62 inc the vat. I wonder if they come in bags of 50 LOL

    That's quite a lot for a rubber circle, but at least it will be a genuine rubber circle.

    331 pounds well spent. Laugh my ass off

    That beats my 'force a blanking grommet in the hole' approach.

    I've ordered one of the eBay ones so will see if it fits.
