Key fob logo worn off

Does anyone know if it’s possible to replace the BMW logo or the the lock button on our key fobs? My BMW logo is worn and looks like crap. Do I have to buy a whole new remote? It looks like other styles have a logo that pops off and can be replaced, but I’m not sure if ours do. Thanks!

They're 11mm BMW key for badge emblem Part #66122155754.

An Exacto knife is needed to pry/wedge off the sticky adhesive, backing is made of rigid metal with 3m adhesive tape.

OEM ECS TUNING for 7.99/ea

NOT OEM 4 pieces for $6.90

If you can wait 10 yrs for shipping from china you can get NON OEM 1000 pieces for $135.00

These are worn off on both of my keys as well. I am definitely going to pick some up.

Thank you!

Just to be sure, this is applicable for this style, right? I ask because before posting this, I tried to pry off the emblem from my spare one with a utility knife and couldn't seem to get under it.

Really? I got ripped off then. I paid $7 each. I didn't like the ones posted on the Ebay link above because it shows them as being 14mm and I measured 11mm on my scuffed one.

Both of my key fobs came missing most of the BMW logo. I guess whoever had it before me always used the button instead of the comfort access. I typically only use CA but if I feel like I forgot to lock up, I use the button.

That's interesting.. 3 plus years with my X5 and I have never used the bmw button on my key fob. I've never really used any buttons really. I guess for some old habits die hard lol.

Yeah unfortunately I wasn't able to do anything about their condition. My key fobs for my X4 were just the cheapo plastic but looked brand new and I used them for 3 years. I guess some people like to take care of their things more than others. Or some just don't have the resources to not care ( like me lol)

Just received my replacement key fob stickers and installed. Took all of 2 minutes. Cost less than 6 dollars Canadian for 10. They are identical to the oem ones.

How do you like your fob case? I was looking at that one, but wasn't sure how dirty it would get.

I have this from day 1. Everytime I go to dealer, they keep asking where I got it because a lot of people seems to prefer this to other fancy key cover.
