Key fob spring auto ejecto!

I have 45 C7 key fob springs! I lost mine changing the battery, pretty common issue, and ordered a bulk of them. Direct replacements, perfect fit. If anyone needs one, email me (cfcoffroad@yahoo.com).

I guess you have never replaced the battery in your key FOB!

There is a retention tab that holds the removable silver key in the key fob. Sometimes when separating the fob to install a new battery, the retention tab/plastic piece pops out and the spring is behind it. I replaced my battery a couple times before it happened to me. The spring is about half the diameter of a pen spring and about 1/4 the length. If you don’t see it pop out, it is very easy to lose it. I firmly believe that the missing spring is teleported to another dimension. Haha
