VWVortex.com user "Alive" has a bully write upwards on how to remove your electronics and chip:

Tools:

Mini screw drivers
Super Glue
Heavy Duty Boom Polish Remover
Safe container
Paper towel

So hither is what your fundamental could look like.. and what the onetime ones await like

Start by pulling your old and new keys apart in the center. On the old key it may be a little more difficult. Don't be scared to use a little force or even ane of your mini screwdrivers to help pry.

Pull the bottom half open up
New one will be empty with not circuit:

Sometime key. Wouldn't be a bad thought to become a new battery in at that place besides (battery is a CR2032):

Using a flat head mini screwdriver place it under the excursion board and gently pry up. You will find that the excursion board is placed down on two pillars of plastic. Just piece of work your way around the key.

Place circuit into the new empty key. Keeping in mind the bend and have this facing towards the buttons.

Snap the bottom parts together.

Now the of import part, top half. Hither nosotros will swap the bare key from the new keys.. with the cut original keys. The primary reason for me creating this DIY is because I was unable to find any information regarding how to do this.

Start with the onetime top one-half where your worn out VW symbol is. Its a pain to try and pry off with the screwdrivers then I used a little bit of smash shine remover.

Let the nail smoothen remover sit for about 10mins. Long enough for a drink Now pry the logo off with the spiral driver should be much easier now.. Under the logo you will find a small philips screw. Apply your mini screwdriver and take it out.

Now this is very of import to do this slowly and advisedly. You volition begin to pull the two upper parts apart. The key is leap loaded and very piece of cake to send pieces flying. Using your thumb and index finger concur the cardinal in place.

Gentally identify the tiptop role with the fundamental on your piece of work surface and slowly release the central and spring. Remove the bound key and button

Repeat the above process for the upper half of the new key. Remove the blank and replace it with the onetime cutting key. Supplant parts including new spring and button with old cut key in new upper one-half.

Now with your "empty" quondam upper half place it in your container. To the left of the central you will look in and see something about the size of a pencil led.

This lilliputian part is VERY important. This is the transponder, the part that will toll you $l+ to get reprogrammed.

Put the part into your container, once over again put some nail shine remover in and allow it sit for about 10mins. Have yourself some other drink

Welcome back! At present using your slotted screwdriver gently work your style effectually prying upwards on the transponder.

Place it in the new upper one-half of the key

Utilise two drops at the elevation and bottom of this guy for it to stay in place.

With the spring and cut key in place of the new uncut key get together information technology. The key volition accept to be "loaded" for it to spring out when the button is pressed.

Then with the key in your had assembled every bit pictured. Turn the cardinal counter clockwise twice.

Carefully put the other summit office with information technology and spiral it downwardly.

Put your previously assembled lower one-half with the top and you have brand new keys! Go test them. I recommend doing one at a fourth dimension to ensure y'all atleast accept a working fundamental encase something goes horribly wrong.
