Well, I'm a musician and have worked on guitars and built effects pedals, so it wasn't tricky for me. On a scale of 1-10, maybe a 6? The switches are just really small and so are the traces you need to get them on. But, you can just lay them on the board and don't need to put the jumper ends through anything (if that makes any sense) so that makes it a bit easier.

Basically, use a pair of tweezers to hold the switch in place....

Thank you for the link!

My keyfob lost the rubber cover on it about two weeks after buying the truck in 2008. It lost the unlock button about a month later due to my GF using a finger nail to click it. It's been out of commission since then. I
l be very happy to have my keyless entry back!

I was able to set the board on a flat surface, sit the switch on the right spot and just be very light with my hand...just a dab'll do ya.

This doesn't have the rubber insert underneath, the top part of the key is all one piece. Still, it beats having to use the doorlocks.

True, these are 1st world problems.
