Did you ever do a video on disassembly and reassembly of the flip key fob? I'm looking to do this mod now but I need to figure out how the flip key fob comes apart.
Not by Me but a 6 part video series here. See if it is clear enough and report back.

The aftermarket keys I bought came with a new chip that appears to have been accepted by the car.

Thanks for the pics and instructions!

I bought two of these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/153210183225

I tried the chip that came in the package because I was getting tired of sanding my way down to the chip in the fixed key.
