    T5 transporter replacement key

    One of my keys from 2008 transporter has broken. A bit of the thing that springs it open has broken. I might buy another case/key from eBay and swap over the key etc. The transponder ( if that’s the correct term) is maybe 8 or 10mm long and as thick as a match, looks very delicate, looks like glass or whatever. Don’t want to break it removing it to put in new case. Has anyone tried this before?

    I've bought two before but only used the rear part and button covers, I kept using the old front part that the key is attached to. I suspect this isn't what you are wanting to do, so can't help I suspect.

    You need to be careful when removing the glass transponder. They are glued in. Use a heat gun/hair drier to soften the glue and then gently pry it out.
    If you break it you can't start the car with that key.
