So I too was going to attempt this but I knocked a component off the board of the new remote while breaking into it.
It was a knock off one from China, but after dismantling it, I'm finding it difficult to believe it isn't actually genuine. There are too many fine details inside to make me think this is some dodgy Chinese copy. This key was meant to be for an X5 at 434MHz but the circuit inside is completely differently aligned to the one in the OP's photos. |

This is so awesome. I've been tinkering with this idea about a year ago, ripped apart several BMW keys, then abandoned the idea after seeing how different the PCB boards are in size. |

It's one component, not two but I have no way of knowing if it's a capacitor or resistor. |

Try this: http://www.digikey.com/product-detai...8-1-ND/4380283 The PCB layout and soldering looks somewhat poor, it might be a clone/knockoff. |

What a pointless endeavour. Best of luck at your next party, fingers crossed your new key gives you the social skills you're lacking.

TBH all of you guys commenting on him saying he's comfortable with showing his keys to his friends are annoying it's clearly an expression.. so focused on a part of a post that doesn't matter, nonetheless I'm in on getting this done PM a price for you to take care of it all

I am not sure this swap will work if your original key has an NXP chip on it. This chip is an Atmel ATA5833 and I couldn't read the part number on the NXP chip in the OP. It's possible they are not pin-for-pin compatible. If you can read the part number of the NXP chip I can check though.

Kind of unbelievable that BMW would give that key for an M car. I hope they give the razor style key for M3 and up??
Would be a bummer to get the bulky key if I get an M3 vs my key with my current X5 |
