Depending on what is wrong with your two fobs -- they might be repairable.  Drop a PM to Martin Imber on the forum -- he's a whizz with these, and it costs a lot less than a new fob

Well -- that battery should be no problem -- Martin might be able to put the innards of the other into another case ( can be had off eBay) still a lot cheaper than getting new from vx and re-programming

if its just the case thats knackered then you can simply swap the innards of one into the other. i did it the other week on my elite and its quite straightforward...
