Perfect match but a little hard to transfer
This key fob worked perfectly and replace a stock fob that had buttons that were so worn they were unusable. I got this to replace my grandmother Santa Fe key fob. It was a one to one match with the new one coming with a black key and not electronics. so naturally I transferred over the electronics over to the new fob and after a little play with the fitment I was able to get everything working and the key to spring out like it supposed to. My one WARNING is not with this fob but with taking the parts out the old FOB, Take you time and be slow, sometimes the fob pops open easy and the transfer goes by quick, but then there sometimes that were you have to fight tooth and nail to get it to open and that is what happen to me. while trying to brute force it open I almost cut the fragile antennae and just missed it with my screwdriver. if you have a hair dryer or heat gun I recommend having it on had because it will make it easier to separate

Two ways to transfer the old key to the new one.
Just want to clear some confusing points from google and youtube, and share the 2 options to safely transfer the old key to your new key. I ordered two and tried both two ways!1. My car is 2013 hyundai santa fe sport 2.0. My keys look exactly same as this one from pictures.2. This new 4-button key is perfect for replacement. It's pop-up design. Super easily to dissemble.3. The most important/difficulty/confusing part is your old keys! There might be two kinds of old keys. Luckily, you have a pop-up one. Unluckily, like me, highly possible, your old key is a whole case! Yes, it looks have seams. Also a small screw hided behind the hyundai logo on the back (you can see it after you remove the logo). However, this screw might not be helpful (also hard to be removed). So if you found your old key looked impossible to be opened, exactly like there is superglue used. Trust me, the case is a whole one.4. There is a video on Youtube with "...... not easy". Many reviewers laughed this guy but he is correct! Also if you googled, you will find a picture introduction with the same problem and he used a melting tool to melt all sides.5. Finally, to my methods! First, be patient and use a small saw to saw seams of the top, top right and bottom sides (after you remove the metal item on the right and bottom, what's the name?). Check frequently to see if you see some white items appear. That's the edge of the chip inside. Also mine old key does not have a small chip in the top right corner. Only one chip board inside! You will do it.6. The 2nd option is from a review from a similar product from Amazon. If your old key is a whole case, and it only has broken cover buttons, you can just remove the 4-button cover on the top and put the new cover on it. It's a little bit difficulty to put/squeeze the cover into the old key, but compare with the 1st methold, this one is pretty relaxed. Only problem your 10% new key will look like a old key.Hope my longest review would be helpful. Good luck!

ten minutes to replace the rubber facing
On my original key fob (2017 Hyundai Sonata SE), the rubber facing for the buttons wore out and tore. I suspect this is the only problem most folks have. I removed the battery so I would not set off the alarm while working, then removed the rest of the old rubber facing. I used the tip of a utility knife to get under the edge of the rubber facing on the new fob and removed it with my fingers. I pressed the new rubber onto the old fob. I suggest setting the buttons in first, then squishing around the edges until the new rubber facing set into place. I replaced the battery and tested. All done in under ten minutes. It was worth the price for the entire shell just to get a properly fitting new rubber facing. Check other reviews and youtube for the complicated stuff if you are replacing more than the rubber facing. I only replaced what I needed. The dealer would have charged $310 for a new cut and programmed fob.

Almost worked
The media could not be loaded. All the dimensions for the buttons and key covers are off my a couple hairs. After taking everything apart and putting it the old key in the new fob it wouldn’t close all the way. After 30 minutes of trying this and that I did the same exact method for the old fob and it closed immediately. Tried the new fob again and it wouldn’t close. After comparing the silver fob button I noticed the silver button on the new fob was slightly shorter than the old button. Decided to use the old button instead and after trying to close everything in the new fob with the old button it still wouldn’t close. Inspected the inner casing for the new and old fobs and noticed the plastic tabs on the inside where the key and spring sits in were slightly longer than the old fob plastic tabs where the key and spring sit in. So I decided to just take the key fob side rim and the rubber buttons off the new fob and use those on the old fob and just keep everything else original. Put the fob together no problem. The only thing is the new buttons don’t lock into the new fob. It fits the casing but it doesn’t lock in so I’m just going to super glue the new buttons to the old fob. If you need to just replace the buttons just buy the buttons, it’s 3 dollars cheaper lol less of a headache trying to disassemble and reassemble a whole new fob set. But even if you needed to actually replace the fob this wouldn’t work due to the dimensions being off a couple hairs here and there. Oh also the new spring distorted pretty easily, went back to the old spring and didn’t have a issue winding it up. So the spring is pretty much garbage. I wouldn’t return it if I didn’t take the buttons from it.

Decent
Had to completely take apart and put my guts & key into it. Otherwise it wouldn't work properly

Nearly Perfect Fit for 2015 Hyundai Sonata SE!
I had called the dealership to see how much a new fob would cost because mine looks like I put it in a blender and quite frankly I do not have $70 to spare. I took a chance on this shell and simply replaced the inside mechanism, which was easy enough. Aside from loss of the Hyundai logo being on the back and the switchblade like key mechanism not working properly, it looks so much better and I like having functional buttons on my fob.

OEM Fobs don't come apart easily, but be careful not to Crack the circuit board inside.
Be sure, to also transfer the small resistor chip, as well. It's under the small white retainer, by the key blade.To use the OEM cut key blade, you need to trim a small amount of the round plastic bit, that retians the spring and blade, as the hole in the OEM blade is very, slightly smaller.It's a bit tricky holding everything in place, to snap it all back together, with the spring wound up. Once it's snapped together. You have a NEW fob... 🧔♂️👍

Not completely compatible
Looks the same, seems the same, but key doesn't lie completely flat inside fob, so spring doesn't work properly. Need to pry it open.
