Review on Key Ignition Switch Knob for Mazda CX-9 2007-2015, CX-7 2007-2011, Mazda 6 2006-2007 - Replaces D461-66-141A-02 D6Y1-76-142 - Keyless Push-Button Ignition Starter Set by Alfonso Wilson

Actually, I'm buying this for the second time. Unfortunately I forgot I bought the same one 6 months ago until I received it. Since I needed an OE and didn't want to wait for another one, I finally secured it with 3 zip ties. Before that, however, it was impossible to get it to work properly. First, the outer part and the inner part cannot be easily connected to each other. I assembled them prior to installation and spent an hour in my workshop with all the tools at my disposal just to take them apart without damaging anything. I then spent about another hour making it easier to connect them together so that once installed in the car I could remove the outer part if needed. I shaved a bit from her and but from there. Set up here and set up there. The only part I didn't touch because I knew it was "sensitive" was the spring latch itself. Then I put the inner part back into the car and tried to push the outer part against it. Push until the spring latch clicks into place. But damn, I kept trying to see if this stupid thing would work. He's not going to sit still for the rest of his life. I ended up drilling 4 holes and using some zip ties to hold it in place while I wait for a replacement from a better place and hopefully get a higher quality item. And what happened to the first one I bought 6 months ago? Well, he never really sat still. So the outer part had to be used as a "key". This means turning the machine on or off and taking it out as it will not stay in place. He also just broke.
