Plan your service

From a damaged fob case to a reviewed replacement option.

1. Show the fob and damage

Share the vehicle make, model and year. Include clear photos of the housing, buttons and key blade, and describe whether the remote and vehicle starting functions still work.

2. Check fit and condition

The exact fob design, blade attachment and electronics condition affect the available options. A replacement shell must match the fob.

3. Confirm the work and test

Agree the compatible housing, scope and price before work. After the service, review the fob’s fit and relevant functions with the technician.

Common questions

Before you book

Will a new shell fix a remote that does not work?

A replacement housing does not repair damaged electronics or guarantee remote operation. Tell us which functions fail so the electronics and housing can be assessed separately.

How do I know which shell fits my fob?

Share the make, model, year and clear photos of the current fob. The button layout, housing design and blade attachment help the team review a compatible fit before confirming service.

Can you review a cracked case if the key still works?

Yes, you can send a housing replacement request. Describe the damage and which functions still work. Housing availability, compatibility and pricing are confirmed for the individual fob.

About SherlockLock key fob shell replacement

The right housing starts with the exact fob design.

SherlockLock reviews key fob shell replacement requests in Boston and Greater Boston. Worn or broken housing, buttons and blade-retaining points need to be assessed against the exact fob design before a replacement can be confirmed.

A shell and the electronics inside it perform different roles. If the remote or starting functions have stopped working, include that in the request rather than assuming a new case will solve it. Send the vehicle details and fob photos so our team can review fit, condition, availability and price.
