Sony Smart Tennis Sensor housing replacement

This tennis sensor, introduced by Sony in 2014 and discontinued in 2016, is a cool and useful device. It is known to have problems with battery and with the bottom part of the housing, which is also the mounting lug, cracking into pieces.

I have been able to successfully repair two sensors with this part, and both work well! Here is how it looks like:
