Buttons works great, doesn’t feel cheap and great value for what it’s worth.

This is 100% better than OEM! No bad rubber buttons. Metal edges are very good looking! All the GUTS inside fit perfect. Bought this for my 2017 Chevy 2500 HD.

The markings on my key fob were wearing out. This makes for an easy replacement. These cases allows for a simple key fob case transfer. Everything works great. Thanks

None of the reviews on this product provide useful information, so hopefully this will help some people decide.This is a CASE ONLY. You must have an existing key fob to buy this, and you must open up the factory one to switch over the microchip. This WILL NOT work by itself. Since you are switching over your currently working key fob microchip, you do not need to get it programmed at the dealer.If you need a completely new key fob, there are options on Amazon that come with a completely new key fob and programming tool for around $50. Those seem to be hit or miss, but it’s still way cheaper than the dealer.There’s not a lot of good videos out there on opening up the original key fob case (the only slightly hard part), and I don’t want to give any specific advice because I essentially destroyed my old case with a flat head screwdriver trying to get out the old microchip. I will say to pry open near the bottom where the key ring goes through. If you pry near the top by the lock/unlock buttons your screw driver will definitely be scraping up against the microchip.Now for this case: The original case has a rubbery front on it. It feels better, but wears out quickly (which is why so many people are buying these aftermarket cases). This one looks the same as the original from a distance, but it’s obviously cheaper quality once you feel it. I will say, the side chrome pieces are actually made out of metal instead of plastic, which was a nice surprise. The front of this case is a hard plastic, not rubber like the original. Who knows how long the front will last, I don’t think this key fob design has been around long enough for people to be able to test out the durability of it. However, for $10 a case, you really can’t go wrong. It’ll last long enough.I really don’t care that the front is plastic on this case. However, here is why I only give 3 stars. The case is just a millimeter or two, too small for the microchip. You can feel that the case doesn’t quite close all the way around the microchip, and when you snap everything together, it’s a tight fit. It doesn’t feel tight enough to damage the microchip, but just slightly too tight (as in front to back/ thickness of the case).Because of the tight fit, the buttons are extremely sensitive. You WILL get accidental button pushes in your pocket. Just note that that lock button seems to be the easiest to press. I don’t care if my vehicle locks again; however, if the unlock button were any easier to push, I would send it back. I would say these buttons are about 3X more sensitive than in the original factory case. Simply lightly placing your finger on the lock button will actuate the button. On my first trip to the store with the new key fob case, my truck locked on me again when putting the keys into my pocket. Since the horn honks when locking, I can see this becoming annoying over time. Like I said, since it’s the lock button and not the unlock button that is the most sensitive, it’s not as much as a safety issue. I wouldn’t want to chance accidentally unlocking my vehicle when putting the keys into my pocket.All that being said, I will still keep the key fob case. The dealer will charge $100 for a new key fob, and another $50 to program it. I went to the dealer, and this is what they tried to charge me. I’ll stick to $10 on Amazon for a new case, even with the poorer quality and performance. The extra cost simply isn’t worth a new one from the dealer.One more thing to note, I looked at pretty much all the cases available on Amazon for this key fob. Every one seemed to have something negative about it. Either too big, too small, or even poorer quality materials. This one seems to be overall OK on everything, and a solid 3/5 star product.

This key fob case is very similar to the original. It only took me about a minute to install my circuit board, battery and snap it all together. It works well. The only difference is that it is missing the "GMC" symbol on the back. The black plastic feels just like the original, and the two side pieces are metal. I purchased two, and am keeping the second in a drawer in case of future damage.

Installation was really easy and all functions on the fob work. I do notice that the buttons are now soft touch and easier to press. Just be mindful if you keep your fob in your pocket. Other than that, I would definitely recommend and/or buy again.

This key fob shell is a perfect fit for my Chevy Silverado! It’s easy to assemble, feels sturdy, and looks just like the original. It’s a great way to refresh an old or damaged fob without spending a fortune. Highly recommend it!

There was no way that battery from original was going to fit. I took my dremel and shaved off 1/32 of an inch of battery holder. This allowed me to place battery in snugly and fits well. The stock GM key fob has a silicone gasket and seems to be somewhat waterproof. The aftermarket fob has no gasket and would not be waterproof.Pro: It is much easier to open up the key fob than the GM originalCon: In my case I had to shave down battery holder to load battery. No silicone seal for waterproofing. No bow tie emblem on back of fob.With that being said looks great and works. It most likely will retain its good looks because it is hard plastic where as the GM fob has a soft exterior that deteriorates quickly and looks terrible.

5Apr24- 4 months of regular use..holding up well, no icon fading at all..still impressed with its quality. Old vs new in the picture. Circuitboard fit well and new case halves closed well. The button presses feel slightly harder..but function well. Can't go wrong with this one for just a new case. Have numerous uses on it now.no sign of icons fading..yet.
