I Give up!

Ok, my 07 switchblade keyless entry battery died(i assume) and I can not figure out how to take it apart to replace the battery! Has anyone done it?

LOL, I found out about this the hard way, when I dropped my keys on concrete once. I thought the damn thing had just split in two, and I'm glad there were no children within earshot.

Ok I got the key away from the bottom, but I see no way to "open" the bottom part. Any help? I don't have the manual handy, but I will check when I can.
