Back in the early days of infra red tv remotes we had little click
switches with hard button tops, never ever went wrong. Has to be a

Do you mean what is generally called a tactile switch?

Just replaced the ones on my car remote. Got a new case for it too off
Ebay. Total cost about £20. New one from a dealer, £350, including coding.
