Anyone know of a vendor that provides two button key fob replacements for Eurovan? Not finding any two button ones. Just three button options.

I have been told they dont make them anymore. when I got my 2002 EVC it only came with 1 FOB, I got a manual key with chip from dealer for around $100 including programing.

Ours were in bad shape and the P.O. had glued the two clamshell parts together. So I could not change the battery without destroying the fob.
There was a link on a Eurovan FB page to a vendor in China. I bought two of the fobs and had a locksmith transfer the guts from my beat up originals. Some things were a little *tight* but he made it fit. The fobs were $15-ish each and the locksmith charged $20 each to do the transplant surgery. They work fine.

What do you think an OEM, NLA key should cost?!?! These are the late Eurovan smart keys. They aren't repopping these in China.

I have no idea what an original Volkswagen key fob cost.
I have a 2002 Eurovan camper. Would that not qualify as “late”? I got the key fobs from China. They work.

Yeah, the "late" model Eurovans ~2000-2003 have keyless entry, so yours qualifies.

As for that key - the top bit claims to be OEM but the remote is a Chinese reman unit. So your $20 option is likely a much better one if you have an older key to repurpose. The immobilzer chip in the key is the tricky bit, which that $199 one does have. There are some ways around that, though.

Talking to a local locksmith who deal with this stuff is a good first option.

I found the case on Amazon, "Keyfobworld Keyless Entry Remote Replacement 2 button flip key case for VW Volkswagen Golf mk4 Bora remote fob" is the description. I swapped my key and guts into the new case- works perfect and cost a whopping $7.99.
