I have a 2002 Boxster and on both key caps (where you press the lock/unlock and truck open buttons) the raised round piece that your press down to activate the truck opener remotely has popped out and no longer works?!? I've looked in various places to try to just buy a cap replacement instead of the $150 complete Key head unit but can't seem to find a source?!? Any ideas? Also, the other remote key is completely dead. It's not the battery, I've taken it apart and one of the microchips things snapped off. What is the best way of replacing the head unit? Just buying the $151 piece and letting the dealership program it? thanks!
