For reasons known only to the prior owner, the open/close buttons on our 6500 mile 2011 Panda key fob were inverted - almost crushed to death. Our 19000 mile 100hp key fob buttons are worn but still in fair condition.


Anyway, I figured ebay might help. Couldn't;t see any fobs that were exactly the same as mine (where the battery case 'snaps off' rather than neatly slides from the inside in the key recess).


Nevertheless, it looked to me like the double buttons were the same size, so I ordered one for £6 including postage:

1. People have speculated about the quality. It's easily as good as the original.


2. It was the 'sliding tray' type fob, so anyone who has that fob might be interested, but it will NOT work for those like me with the 'snap-off' design as the circuit board doesn't fit.


3. The Open/Close single button is the same size thankfully and works well (you don't actually need to take the case off to remove these buttons).


4. The 'boot lock' button is not the same size.
