Review: Great replacement 03 Ram - Perfect replacement case for my 03 Ram fob. Fit perfectly and replacement was an ease. Great price and fully compatible with OEM fob chip. You need to swap over battery holder but very easy to do. Looks and works great.
Review: Worked Perfectly - I dropped my keyfob from my old 2002 Dodge Durango and the top cracked off. I did a superglue temp fix, but knew I needed a replacement. So far, I could not be happier. I feel like the plastic is slightly lighter, so I will update the review as far as any changes in durability. In general, installation is a breeze. You pry open your old keyfob. The keyfob board MUST be in working order, as this is just the housing you are buying. NOTE: The same company does sell a whole keyfob for about $28-30. You would need a second ,working keyfob to program the new one. Anyway, once you open your old keyfob, carefully remove the contents. On a Dodge keyfob, you have the two C2016 batteries, a thin plastic overlay, and the original rubber 'Unlock/Lock/Panic' overlay. Next, carefully pry off the battery terminal from the old keyfob. It is usually held down by a tiny plastic raised pin that is part of the keyfob body. The next step is to insert the battery terminal into the new keyfob. Then insert the 'Unlock/Lock/Panic' keypad, then the thin plastic overlay. Last, insert the board and the batteries. The last step took me a few minutes. I was trying to be careful with the board and it was a very tight fit in the new rubber housing. I snapped the two halves of the new keyfob together, and it worked perfectly. The new buttons do see more rigid to press. That may also be that the old overlay was 18 years old and well broken in. Either way, it is a different feel but it is not like I have to press more than once or press very hard. the buttons just feel harder to the touch.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Assembly required.
*by J***Y on February 6, 2026*

Key fob arrived timely, looks great but should have come with an instruction. The metal battery contact did not come with the new fob so it needed to be transferred from the old unit to the new but there was no instruction or indication that that needed to be done. Once transferred and assembled the fob works good.
