Keys and batteries

[Quentin]

Hi, MY2010 Calais. Issues with unlocking the car with both keys. I am assuming this is a battery issue given they are 12 years old. Can anyone assist in a) what type/model number battery I need; b)how to replace the battery in the keys without having to pay a holden dealer and without wrecking the casing?
Thanks in advance, Quentin.

Don't go a bull at gate at it,
as you CAN split the case/housing.

The OEM key usually use a CR2032 battery,
but
some aftermarket ones use a CR1225 battery.
