[QUOTE="screaminfast, post: 1846566, member: 63222"] Insert the battery into the fob case gently minding the tiny plastic tab that holds in in there. [ATTACH type="full"]380172[/ATTACH] After getting this far, I went over to my local ford dealership and asked them if the would cut the new backup key for me. The first dude said he had to ask the manager, but when the manager came out, it was someone I knew from back in the day at another bmw speed shop. Turns out the hesitation was that some of the aftermarket ones are very hard and break the bits. Most locksmiths and dealers can cut this key for you or you can decide not to do it at all. I wanted to have it with the new fob. The parts department didn't even charge me to cut the key. Once cut, I headed to my shop to remove the key from the factor lower fob part. The video from AJT shows it just being pulled out. Mine did not want to until I noticed that there was a tiny little roll pin in the side of it. If you have this roll pin (My factory MY18 Raptor ones also have this), you will need to drill it out. I used a 5/64th drill bit and just went slowly until I could feel the key wiggling. Also if you don't want to scratch up your key, you can put tape on your pliers or vice grips. [ATTACH type="full"]380173[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]380174[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]380175[/ATTACH] Once you have it out, just place it into the back of the AJT key fob case with the key side towards the battery. Side note, since my key got some gouges and it was freshly cut anyways, I just took it to my grey wheel and cleaned up the burrs and the sides. [ATTACH type="full"]380176[/ATTACH] Continued...
