[QUOTE="haywire, post: 466443, member: 16474"] I used a Dremel rotary tool to cut the key from its side. you could use a knife but it will take ages to be separated apart. once open the electronics inside is not held by anything, so just take it out and put it in your new key. In mine I found out that the middle switch (bmw logo) on the board has fallen off so I had to solder it back on, otherwise you wont need the solder iron. the replacement blank key that i bought is held together by catches so i can just pry it open easily.
