Got a message on the dash today never seen before, Luckily one not to worry about. Key fob battery low. How cool is that? is there no end to the messages in the brain of this beast.
Question is has anybody got any good ideas and i said good ideas of how to get into the back when the slot has been abused (no not by me) i gave it to the long haired colonel to get them changed a few years ago and some brute of a Russian repair man and i use that term loosely changed the battery. I knew this day would come.

First get yourself a new battery carrier then i drilled two small holes in the old one and used circlip pliers to get it off. A 2p piece is just the size to fit the new one.

As well as @tomcat59alan idea. Always best to get the little kit with the buttons and battery cover they are only pennies.

I am sure i have heard somebody heated something big and flat and stuffed it in the carrier let it cool then turned it off and threw in the bin.

They really dont take much abuse before they are useless.

Tried getting the button kit as I need that also for one of the fobs but apparently the company I usually use are having to much trouble with airmail to Russia at the moment so wont supply. I did get some suspension airbags from them recently and all good OEM parts. Yes they arrived but weeks apart and the air compressor piston ring lasted 2 weeks so reordered the piston kit from X8R and so far all good but they don't do the key fob button bit as far as i can see.
