fits 2012-2014 Kia Rio / 2010-2013 Kia Soul Flip Key Fob Remote Case Shell (NYOSEKSAM11ATX)

The ONLY issue i had was closing the the new shell after assembly. It worked perfectly and my old key fit inside this shell as well, and the new uncut key will be saved until i need a new one cut. The old transponder fit perfectly and had no issues with the item itself, whatsoever. Notes: - If your old key fob says "KIA" on it, it is the factory fob and may have a tiny black chip that you will need to move to the new shell. - If your old fob has a tiny screw on the back, save the screw just in case, my new one didn't need it but better safe than sorry. - Make sure your transponder is working before assembling new fob. If your transponder doesn't work, then you need to buy a working one from the dealer or locksmith or you wont be able to start your car. - Make sure you WIND UP the key-spring ONCE or it wont pop out when you press the button to eject the key. FYI, i am no mechanic but I have experience with keyfobs and circuit boards.

It shipped really quickly and came nicely packaged. I watched a quick YouTube video on the process and within about 10 minutes I fixed a problem thag plagued me for years 😂 The hardest part was getting my old fob open because it was so old, but once that was done it was super easy to put in the pieces and snap it all together. Like others have said, the new hinge button doesnt fit but swapping the old one over works just fine. Overall I highly recommend!

We have had our original one for 13 yrs and were well worn. I purchased these to see if they would work. Hubby had to use several tiny tools to complete the process but they work great. He watched a video before hand.

Worked great once I watched a video or 2! If you take it apart yourself, my only recommendation is to open it in a plastic bag. The key portion has a few little springy parts that can go flying. Some people report that the spring button for the key does not fit properly- mine didnt fit but since I saved the old spring and button I was able to just use those. Mine came with a screw, but did not have a screw hole to put it in. Not sure if its supposed to be missing the hole, but it snaps shut and holds without the screw! Just know that taking apart your old key WILL destroy the plastic shell. So once you start, you cant stop

This was for a 2013 Kia Rio5. The buttons on the old keys were rubber and had completely rotted/torn away. The only difference was the new key case has a screw peg and screw to fasten the case together. The case coming apart with the old key was a problem, so the screw in the new case is a good thing! It was super easy to get the old case apart and remove the circuit board. The transponder must be on the board because that's the only thing I needed to move over to the new case. I was able to reuse the old metal key part (it has identical shape and spring as new key) so did not need to get the new ones cut. It took about 15 minutes to replace the cases on both keys just because getting everything lined up without the circuit board getting loose was tricky. But once I got the screws in they were solid! I reused the old battery covers because they had serial numbers on them, and they fit perfectly snug on the new case. The dealer quoted me $280 to fix one key, so spending $10 on two here was the deal of a lifetime!

Didn’t have a chip in it to function also wasn’t the right key so couldn’t get it cut.

Note: This is just the plastic case and blank key. The product's website helps you find a locksmith to program and cut the new key. However, only the case on my 2013 Kia Soul FOB was broke, the circuit board and everything else inside was fine. So, in my case, after watching several YouTube videos , I was able to take apart my broken FOB and transfer the old circuit board and old key into the new case. Granted, I am not the most graceful person doing detailed work, so I accidentally shot the spring across the room and scared the crud out of my cat who leaped into the air and grabbed the curtains and swung across the room tearing them down into a ball. Then he picked the spring up and took off into the living room with it. After chasing him down I managed to trade catnip for my spring, and was able to successfully install my old circuit board, spring and key into the new case and it works perfectly! No programming or locksmith necessary, although I did need bandages from wrestling the spring away from my cat. I suggest you watch several Youtube videos and try to lock your cat out of the room before you begin work.

Very happy and satisfied!

This is a shell replacement. If your mother board is damaged then this will not work for you. When you open up or break open the old key fob watch for two very small peices a black and a white one. Make sure you put the little black peice and white chip back in the top corner where the flashing light is. That is your chip!! Your car will start but not stay running without these :) open the old key fob in a zip lock bag to contain all the little peices (we thought those peices were broken from the old fob. But they were the main chip haha) i also had to use my old button as the button that was included was not long enough to sit through the fob. I asked for a refund cause it didn't look like you could open the new one up. My dad figured it out :) I just sent a message to cancel the refund and return. Thanks so much saved alot of money!!! This was for a 2013 Kia rio :) old keyfob had busted buttons missing buttons. 10 years old and the original!!

Too difficult to rebuild but if you take off the rubber buttons off the new key and soak it in carb cleaner for one second and pop them onto the old keys they work fine. Make sure you press them very quickly and hard and the rubbers locked unlock buttons cover will stay on

Work3d awesome dont forget to get the white immobilizer chip

This case is exactly like the original I got with the car. I replace my old Kia Rio 2013 with this case, from which the buttons were ripped because of the use. Opening the original case was not so easy though, but at the end I succeed to do it following a youtube video. Highly recommended.

When we bought a used 2011 Kia Soul recently both fob/keys were in bad shape. One was held together with a rubber band and when I transferred the electronics to these new cases I learned the other had been glued shut by the previous owner. The key on that second fob broke right out of the swivel block which prompted this repair. Although they claim to be compatible with my vehicle it turned out the key blanks were completely different to the original keys so I couldn't use them, but it was fairly easy to reuse the old ones. On the one with the broken swivel block I had to use a ground-off finishing nail to remove the tiny roll pin in the new block and fit the old key into it, which required a bit of reshaping of the shank with a small triangle file. In the end it fit like it was made for it but if your aren't handy it might be a problem for you. If your old swivel blocks and keys are intact your can just transfer them over as is for a quick repair with no need to get a locksmith to cut the new keys. Unlike the old cases, these ones are held together with a tiny screw, not just friction, so I don't expect them to fall apart anytime soon. Contrary to some web sites I read in preparation, my 2011 Soul DID have the transponder chip in the old cases, so they had to be moved to these new cases for them to start the car. They are glued securely in place so this isn't very easy, but there are YouTube tutorials that tell you how to extract them and install them into the new cases. I also transferred the old Kia logo badge from the back of the old fobs as well as the metallic product label, which required a thin spray of 3M #77 since the old adhesive stayed on the old cases. The oval recess on the back where the badge goes is a bit bigger than on the originals so there is a little space all around, but it looks fine if you place it carefully. Two turns of the spring when assembling the case halves and it responds to the release button just like a new fob. The end result looks, feels, and operates like new. I deducted one star because the key blank was not correct for my vehicle.
