Definitely check for that too. It almost looks like it doesn't need to be there. It's just clear plastic in the shape of the remote with 3 little black nubs on it. It goes between the rubber buttons and the part that actually controls everything with the little black nubs stick out towards the rubber.

I finally tries to swap mine after getting the key cut. Does anyone else's inside look like mine? With a triangle metal tab to connect the battery? It doesn't fit in the new fob at all. Even the actual board doesn't really fit very well.

Do I need a different flip key or a new oem fob to swap over?

Here's the stock fob I pulled the guts from:

The triangle thingy is what makes all the connections when you press the button. It should swap right over. Are you putting it in the right direction?

Yeah, it doesn't look the same as anyone else's I have seen. The triangle needs to lay flat so the prongs can touch the sides of te battery but the plastic ring that holds te battery won't allow that. It looks like this switchblade key requires the connector that lays under the battery on the + side

Yeah I think I'll start hacking it up. Worst case I can get another switchblade and an extra stock fob to do the transfer.

It is for sure the stocker- checked both fobs. I even opened up my wife's 08 pathy and it looks the same. Maybe the dealer had these?
