$6.99 Key Conversion!!!!

I knew there was no way in the world I would be able to convert my key like the MAZDA, AUDI, etc., so I ordered this "jacket" on ebay and put both the key and fob in the jacket and it words great. I cant stand the key blade and fob being separate.

Nothing was destroyed like the other conversions messing with the chip.
Took about one minute.
Easily converted back.
Only $6.99!!!
Thoughts??

***These pics were taken with my phone so not the best quality.***

Cool and simple solution to your issue. Does the key face retract like on the Audis/VWs?

So if I understand this correctly you just stuffed the key and the fob both into the rubber jacket. Is the key securely held in?

Yeah they are both secure since the jacket was only made for the fob. Turns in the ignition perfectly and is secure so....its working for me....you should give it a try for $6.99.

not bad.. someone should make one out of stiffer plastic and design it so it allows the key to be slide in and out
