silicone key cases

Ordered one of these today in lime green.
I made my wife take all the dangling stuff of the original key ring so she wouldn't accidentally shut the car off.
She said it would be too hard to find the key in her purse without all that junk on it. I think these bright silicone cases will do the trick. $9.23 from a Chinese website I frequently buy from.
Sorry the picture is sideways. Can't figure out how to straighten it out.

Sounds like the purse is a bigger problem than the key.

Maybe the designer should do a recall on that instead.

are these made of soft ''gelly'' silicone rubber?
Could they be a fix to the Ignition key recall?

Yes they are like jelly silicone rubber. I'm buying them because I'm not bringing my flip key in for the recall.

Well, these seem to fit on top of the original FOB, right?
or they you need to open and removed the inside of your FOB and use this shell?

This may help you see how it fits. It just slips over your fob.

Love to buy American and do so when I can, ie. Chevrolet, Dodge, etc. The stuff I buy direct from China is the stuff I could buy here sold by some guy who bought from China to sell to me. : - )
