Smart Key Color Change -> Black

A minor dislike of my Limited is the champagne-colored smart key fob. By day 2 I already had smudges on it and have a feeling it will show scratches easily. I've had those silicone covers in the past and wasn't a fan since they attract dust and add friction when getting them in and out of pockets. Anyway, it's an easy fix. I found some emtpy black shells on fleabay for around $6 and figured it was worth a shot. I received them today and confirmed they are a direct swap. You simply crack them open, move the board over, and close it up and swap the key. They even come with the little toyota emblem for the back.

First pic is of the cases side by side (already cracked open). Second pic is the internals after the swap.
