Picked up my new to me 2005 RRS HSE noticed on one of the fobs the unlock switch is broken can they be repaired or do I have to sell one of my kidneys.
Cheers

Not had to fix the buttons myself but did fit a new battery to my spare fob a while back.

How is the new RRS suiting you so far? 2008 MY Java Black TDV8 HSE

B dy brilliant only had it a day should have got one when I wrote off my D2 three years ago but went for another D2. Dealers been great done all the jobs I asked for just waiting for the the fob cases to arrive think that's how the switch got broken the cases are well shagged so he's ordered me 2. Never noticed one fob was faulty must have always picked the good one when I test drove it 4 times hey ho happens.
