Is there a way to fix a MB key where the plastic came off? (except going to the dealer and have one made for 35 bucks). It's ugly now and hard to use.

This should do what you want without the need to buy a new one.

Oops, I didn't know they sell those. Cool, thanks a lot!

They're probably using brass keys, which are not good.
