Horande Replacement Key Fob Cover Case fits for Range Rover Evouge Discovery Sport Velar Land Rover LR2 LR4 Jaguar XF XJ XJL XE Keyless Entry Key Fob Shell

My Jaguar remote, like many suffered the silicone cover separation syndrome. I thought I was doomed to purchase a new remote, although the remote worked perfectly. Enter this amazing life, and money, saver. It's very easy to fit to the old electronics in the case. A very detailed explanation is on Amazon by a previous buyer. Simply pry apart the old case and the new case, pry out the electronics very carefully from the old remote (caution is the word because if you crack the printed circuit there goes about $400 out the window). I pried gently up from the side with no pins so I could work a micro screwdriver under each retaining pin. Gently pry up and the pin will snap and do this with the other pin. Lift out the PC board and the plastic guard (be sure the pins are out of the circuit board...you should see two holes) and press the board and plastic shield gently into the new case, carefully aligning the pins with the open holes on the circuit board. You do not need to glue or otherwise secure the board inside the new case, although that can be easily done by heating a very small nail or sharp object and touching the two pins to melt the top. Again, not required, but be aware the circuit board will fall out next time you change the battery. I should mention...change the CR2032 battery at this time and your remote should be good for several years. Snap the halves together, replace your emergency key and slide the chrome piece in place. (It is a difficult tight fit so I gently tapped mine in place with a rubber mallet. ) You can use your old Jaguar or Land Rover chrome piece as I did if you wish.Can you tell which is the new and old from the picture? The original spare is on top and the new is on the bottom and it works great!

Very easy to assemble. Just open the existing fob by sliding the silver side down and pull off. Then open the holder as shown in their video by popping it apart with a very small screwdriver. Open the new case the same way. (though our new case came with the silver side already detached) Then, once both are opened, a couple of important notes:1. Our existing fob had an almost clear rubber gasket around the inside. Remove this and put it on the new fob case the same way. It probably wont seat itself fully until the fob is reassembled and closed.2. Comparing the two open cases, there are two plastic "pins" on one side of the inside of the new case that are removed on our existing case. In checking the board that needs to be transferred, on ours anyway, those "pins" need to be removed or else the board will be damaged when trying to close the new case. (The "pins" line up with delicate circuits on the board). They are easily snapped out of the new case with a small screwdriver.Then just transfer the circuit board (it's all one piece and not attached otherwise) and carefully snap the new case back together. It's a bit tough, but very solid once closed. Then align the silver side, (there are clasps on the sides that you can eye to which way they line up) press it into place and slide it back up. Voila! Done.Works just like the original and saved a bundle!

Perfect!

We have a 2016 LR4. Perhaps the keys look exactly the same, but upon close inspection there are some minor differences in how each key was made. I was able to get the guts of the key fob to fit, but had to pull out an exacto knife and cut up the inside of the plastic as there were two plastic “tabs” that prohibited the guts to fit inside the plastic shell. Most worrisome was the fear of cutting my finger open as it’s a very small part and hard to hold while cutting out the tab. Other than that, appears it fits after those tabs are cut out / removed. It definitely is a huge improvement on the original key fob in which the glued on plastic cover was coming off and made the key really sticky.

This is a direct replacement for your OEM Jaguar/LR key fob housing. Note that the metal side piece is lighter weight and does not have "Jaguar" or "Land Rover" on it...but that's easily fixed if you still have your original. Read on.When I bought a used XF one of the fobs had been partially crushed and the rubber cover was falling off (common problem). Luckily the circuit board was in working order so I swapped it in to this new case. I polished the OEM metal "Jaguar" piece and then attached it to this new case....it locked up tighter on this housing than the OEM and gave a nice factory look.While the plastic portion of this new case is slightly harder to the touch it is made of a seemingly more durable polymer than the rubber that tends to separate from the OEM fobs. That's a plus for me.A note on installation. To open your OEM fob follow the directions in your owners manual for changing the battery (slide metal portion down to reveal a physical key, insert it between the two plastic halves and twist until they come apart).When you pry the circuit board from your OEM fob you'll notice it is basically only attached to two small plastic posts on one side of the case. These posts will break off from the old case. Don't worry about it. Make sure you remove what remains of the posts from the circuit board itself so you can see two holes all the way through the board. At this point you'll have a circuit board and separate metal "shield" that goes over the smart chip. Place them one on top of the other in to the new case. The holes will align perfectly with new posts in the replacement case. Click the two halves back together, insert the physical key, and slide on the metal portion. Easy peasy.
