Can you get replacement leather for the back of the remote fob?
Mine's got a couple of tear's and starting to peel off.
It would be good if you could choose the colour of leather to match your interior.

Or replace the whole fob.
Search this forum for the Jag fob mod.

Have a look in the manual and take it apart. Remove the leather covering as it is now ripped and it will come off really easily anyway. Replace the battery while you are there (CR2032). Have a look on ebay or similar for a metal Aston logo,

(they are the ones that are in the key on both sides) then "sharpie" the white "Volvo" logo out (which is what the leather cover was covering) and superglue one of the metal logos to the fob over the blacked out "Volvo" logo. Job done yes

I have done both of mine, they look really nice too. thumbup
