Ford KUGA tdci Keyfob remote battery replacement

Car dash came up with remote battery low this morning.

Turns out it's an easy fix.
Remove key piece,  and use a knife to prise the two halves of the Keyfob apart.
The just replace the battery with an equivalent.
I got two batteries from Amazon. (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0042GUIAU)

Test by using remote on car before assuming it's all ok!
