Key Fob Battery Cover Lost - Where to buy part

Lost the plastic cover on the back of my key fob that covers the battery.

Searched everywhere and cannot find anywhere to just replace that part.

Any ideas?

Thanks...

Google is your friend... learn how to use it.

Here's a hit from the first page of results - http://www.cnautoqi.com/productlist....3&ParentToID=6. There are dozens of them for sale on Ebay as well.

Thanks Diabolis for your help. I too found thousands of key covers on eBay, Amazon etc. but as I only need the battery cover, my search came up short.

how did it come up short? You have to buy the cover and along with it comes the rest of the fob for free

My search came up short because I couldn't find "only" the battery cover piece!

If the answer is you can't just buy the cover, then thank you for your input.

If I already knew that I'd never have posted the question as I know you can easily source the whole key fob cover from multiple sources.

Thanks for trying to help. Guess I didn't explain exactly what I was looking for.

Regards...

Rico - the only people that may have extra fob covers without the case are AMG owners that received the AMG fob covers in the tin can with their new vehicle... but I suspect that no one would be botherered to spend two hours of their time to find one, obtain a paddded envelope and package it, and take it to the post office for $10. You buy the whole cover from any number of sources... you can then either replace the whole thing with the new one, or only the back portion as you see fit.

Thanks Diabolis, got my answer. The part I need can only be sourced by buying the whole assembly.
