Default Key Fob protector/Case?

What are you guys using to store or protect your key Fob? I am trying to find some thing better than my current case.

I use the OSIR clear sleeve.

i never user the buttons any way, thanks to key less entry.



I also purchased their V2 cover from OSIR which I DO NOT Recommend. Feels cheap and you cannot get a key ring chain on at the same time..

Mine same as AudiQ5sleeper except being white. Very pratical, buttons are accessible.

Had to get one of these as without it and having keys in pocket all the time, it turns out while being at work and sitting at desk, key press occured and twice the hatch door got open by itself..... Luckly no one stole anything from trunk.

Does the Osirusa cases work on the new keys with the hole in the middle?

I've been using the same key for 16 months and there's not a scratch.what are you guys going to buy to keep your expensive cover from getting all scratched up? It's a key for crying out loud.

its not about protecting. its about protecting the buttons from being pressed while in pocket and bags.

Thanks for the post.

I was concerned about accidental key fob presses, but after seeing your post I ended up grabbing the OSIR you suggested. It definitely works, but now I find that I have a hard time removing the case when I actually want to press the key.... Is there a trick to removing the OSIR Muzzero case, when you want to quickly slide it off and on again? Mine takes a lot of work to get it off the fob...is there an easier way that I'm missing?
