2018 Ford F150, Perfect fit and look good!
These were easy to switch out. I placed the old key into the new housing which fit perfect. I also used the rubber pad on the inside of the old key fob in the new housing which fit exact and I could tell was better quality (the part that presses against the circuit board when pressing the buttons). I only had to trim the little nub where the light is because it stuck out and prevented it from laying flat in the housing against the circuit board. The new fob doesn’t have a spot to display the light which is ok with me. The buttons work perfect and I don’t have to press hard like some buyers said. I think it’s because I used the OEM rubber on the inside instead of the one that came in the new housing. Perfect and thank you! Looks like a new set of keys.

Money well spent!
I bought this to replace the flip key fob for my 2019 F150. It was an almost exact replica of my factory fob. The only difference was the new one doesn’t have a spot for the LED visual, and the the back is all plastic (there isn’t a Ford logo on it). Changing the key and electronic board was very easy. It only took me about 5 minutes total to have it all put back together, even with having to wind the spring for the key. Tested the flip feature and my key was held tightly in place until I hit the button and it flipped out perfectly! Took it outside and all the buttons worked as they were supposed to as well. It’s a great aftermarket piece, and I can deal without the Ford logo and light. Especially since the Ford dealership wanted over $200 for their new key…I paid $10 for this one and I would do it again!!

Good but with some caveats
I got this key fob because the flip out mechanism broke on my oem fob and I didnt want to pay dealership prices. Overall the fob works but there are a few things to note if you plan on getting it.1. The mechanism to flip out the key is completely different so If you plan on swapping your key you'll need to hammer out the pin on the key and put it on the new mechanism. I found this harder than I thought to get the pin to line up all the way through and took a bit to get it right. There are videos online on how to do this.2. The keyring part is smaller than the oem. My keyring which fit fine on oem was too big for the new one and I had to find a new smaller split ring to attach my keys to the fob. Not a dealbreaker but just worth noting.

A great value!
I only needed the metal piece (including the release button and spring) into which the key blade is attached with a small diameter pin. I reused everything else from the original key fob.Pros: the price and the quality and fit of the parts supplied in the kit are excellent.Cons (and this is not a dig against the kit): if you reuse your original key blade you may have to file away some of the key blade metal to make it fit into the metal piece that holds the key blade (like I did). But if your original key blade and the metal piece that holds it are not damaged you can just transfer it from the old fob shell to the new fob shell.If you reuse your original key blade but also use the new metal piece that holds the key blade, getting the release button properly oriented into the piece that holds the key blade can be a bit tricky, because proper orientation is not obvious. You can do it, but you may have to try it several ways before getting it right.All in all I’m very happy I was able to get this kit at such a good price instead of having to pay a Ford dealer an exorbitant amount for a new key fob and the programming it needs.

OK key fob for a backup
This keyfob came in on time and looks good, however the machanism on the key spring doesn't work smoothly. In fact it does not pop out and engage fully. I have to lock it into place in order to use it in the car and the key opens in my pocket frequently. No where near the quality of the factory fob, but it does cost much less. OK fob to use as a backup.

Do not buy!
I bought the first one and didn't learn my lesson. The first one wouldn't stay together and I almost lost my key because it fell apart in a parking lot when I was exiting my vehicle. I put it back together and after about the 10th time falling apart I taped it together. I finally decided I would buy another one I thought maybe I got a bad one or I did something wrong. Well I received my new one yesterday and while getting out of my truck it fell apart again. Another thing is the key doesn't snap in and out like the factory key, it has a very weak spring. Ok so I guess I'll have to pay the 200 dollars and buy an overpriced factory key.

Solid value
It seems sturdy. If you are wanting to insert your old key into it getting the retaining pin out is fiddley, but I got it done. The spring mechanism, to have the key pop out forcefully, was something I couldn’t quite figure out, but the key is still retrievable from it’s tucked position.

Same as original
Switched out the inside of my old one to this new one and works 👍
