I don't think its worth $42. Unless you have $$ to burn.

Have one on my key fob now. You get one when you buy an AMG. If you're getting the genuine article, quality is as you'd expect. Really just a regular key fob back with the Aafalterbach crest on it.

I must say mine is original bought from the dealer that's why quality is on par with what your "blank" cover is
Well, besides that these don't come with pair ,only one piece normally unless you order for your other key fob

It's like .00001% real silver. How could it not be worth at least $42

Seriously, there was one in the glove box of the SL. I immediately installed it and it became my primary key for the car.

Necessary? No. But... well... maybe it IS necessary. Wonder if I can get one for my Town and Country keyfob?

It's really helpful if you have more than one benz key on your keychain so you can keep track of which key goes to which car should you need to give a key to service or the valet (I once dropped the car off for service and left the wrong key).

I don't know why you don't get 2 when you get an AMG, but I kept it when I traded my C63 for the E63 so now I have 2 (one for each E63 key).

Rumor has it that the fob cover adds 25 HP to the car

Speaking of that AMG logo key logo , please don't "sheath" it under leather cover as mine developed an oxidation ,we had to rub it bright .
