New Key Fob

Being that I like different things and like to be original...

Do you guys think this would work? It looks REALLY close to my mini key's "format"... 3 buttons in a row...

I may pick one up and test it someday soon. Unless someone knows for a fact it wouldn't work.

::Edit::

Actually, this may be more like what I'm looking for:

99% sure the mini system is not compatible with the BMW ews system...or the keyless entry system.

the second link looks like it's for an empty case... I'm thinking of transferring my electronics into the case...

The first link I thought was for an empty case also, but alas, I was mistaken.

I wouldn't count on it working without modification if it would work at all. The circuit board is very unlikely to fit in the case correctly.

I have seen the flip case on ebay for the 2 button remote, however a quick search for the 3 button turns up no results on either ebay or the first few pages of a general google search.
