9 months in and the back of my keyfob is looking grim. Shiny black soft plastic, easily scratched by other stuff in your pocket, dented too. At the moment, it doesn't look possible to buy replacements, you have buy a complete fob which costs and there are all the security hoops to jump through even if you are not going to use it because the fob comes with the physical key cut for your car.
I think LR should supply battery covers as a spare part, they must cost all of 10p to mould and I'd be happy to pay 100 times that rather than 1000 times for a new fob.
Hopefully, Nick will spot this post and make the suggestion to the spares people. Looks like the fobs are made by Lear who supply quite a lot of other parts for the Evoque.
