Volkswagen Group MQB 3 Button Replacement Flip Key Case
Restore the appearance and functionality of your worn, damaged or broken Volkswagen Group key with this replacement 3 button flip key case, available with a choice of plastic or metal-effect bottom finish.
This replacement housing is designed for customers whose existing remote key still operates correctly but has suffered damage to the casing, buttons or flip mechanism.
Simply transfer the electronics and transponder chip from your existing key into the new housing and either transfer your original blade or have the supplied blank blade cut to match your vehicle.
Choose Your Key Case Finish
Both versions use the same style replacement key housing and are designed for the same compatible remote keys. The only difference is the finish of the bottom section surrounding the keyring attachment.
Plastic Bottom
The standard replacement housing features a black plastic bottom section with an integrated keyring loop, providing a simple, understated appearance.
Variant: Plastic Bottom
Metal Bottom
This version features a chrome-finished metal bottom section around the keyring attachment, giving the key a more premium appearance.
Variant: Metal Bottom
Both options are replacement housings for the same compatible key design. Please select Plastic Bottom or Metal Bottom from the product options before adding to your basket.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the plastic and metal bottom versions?
The key housings are designed for the same compatible remote. The plastic version features a black plastic bottom section, while the metal version has a chrome-finished metal bottom section around the keyring attachment. The difference is primarily cosmetic.
Does this include the electronic remote control?
No. This product is a replacement housing only. You will need to transfer the electronic circuit board and immobiliser components from your existing key.
Will I need to have my key programmed?
No. If you transfer your original working electronics and immobiliser transponder into the replacement housing, no additional programming should be required.
Can I reuse my existing key blade?
Your existing blade may be transferred if it is compatible with the replacement flip mechanism. Alternatively, the supplied blank blade can be professionally cut to match your original key.
Will this fit my Volkswagen, Audi, SEAT or Skoda?
This housing is suitable for selected Volkswagen Group vehicles using the matching 3 button MQB flip key design. Please compare your existing key with the product photographs, as different key styles may be fitted to the same vehicle model.
Can I change from the plastic bottom to the metal bottom?
Yes. If your existing key uses the compatible housing design, you can choose the metal bottom version when replacing your key case. The original electronics can be transferred in the same way.
Will this fix a remote that no longer locks or unlocks my car?
This product is intended to replace the physical key housing, buttons and flip mechanism. It will not repair faults with the electronic circuit board, internal switches or vehicle communication.
