Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

One of my key / remotes is very worn - the 3 rubber buttons are worn down smooth. I don't want to buy a whole new remote. Just wondering if anyone has replaced the cover or if there is a more modern alternative cover. Best place for purchase.
There are other sources that may be cheaper. Remote Control - Upper Button Cap:Suncoast Porsche Parts & Accessories
have you tried this product yourself? is the button cover made of "plastic" or "rubber" ? the original OEM one .. is a rubbery material. I bought a replacement one from ebay before .. and it came in a "plasticy" material. The plasticky material (because it was hard) ended up wearing out my push button on the circuit board. If this one has rubbery push button (soft) that would be perfect.

It's a OEM replacement. It's definitely not plasticy.
You can find the cases on eBay as well
Your Porsche dealer can provide a replacement for the button side. And a new crest for the other side if you need it.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
