Time for Plan B then.

Take a look at the rear part of the new case, is there what appears to be a thin sprig of plastic sticking out? if so pull it off with a pair of pliers and try again, failing that heat up the shank of a bolt with a blowlamp, or over the gas in the kitchen when the missus isn't about and melt the round inner part of the button with the cross slightly.
This should make the buttons on the remote work, the sticking out part on a genuine Valeo casing aligns with a small hole in the PCB, this is not so on a cheap casing.
