vw kew blades

How can I swap out the key blade from an old remote to a new remote? I tried prying the front part of the remote apart, but I did not want to break the plastic.

You seperated the key, right? Now try the screw that's underneath the emblem.

The key blade is attached with a pin at the pivot point.

Re: vw kew blades

screw under an emblem? NO.

The switchblade key has a little pin holding the key to the hinge mechanism.

Open the key halfway, and look at the hinge. Push that little pin out with a tiny screwdriver, and the key comes out. Put the new blank in, push the pin back in, and you're done.
