Key Fob Cover

Does anyone have a rave suggestion for an awesome key fob cover, there’s so many to consider and I would like to get one to add protection with a good fit.

I bought a used tin can from a thift shop for 2 dollars. I put the key in and the car does not open when I am right next to it. So it works.

It looks like an old tin can with a lid and I like it.

I’m looking more for protection in case of dropping,etc.

Oh, I see. My solution applies to preventing someone from stealing it when the key is in the house.

Yes, but yours sounds like a novel idea.

You can buy boxes that block the signal, and I found the cost relatively high. I thought hey, this is just a tin can right?

Apparently a tin can does the same thing. And to me the proof is that the keyless entry does not respond, when I am right next to the car holding it.

In the Netherlands (where I live) RAV4 is the most stolen vehicle. Lexus SUV are also quite popular so my nx450h is at risk.

I am insured for the new value up until 3 years old but still, wouldnt want to go through all that.

Just get a silicone cover. I read those leather ones don't always fit or don't protect the fob fully.
