I don’t like the key fob.

I carry mine covered key in a padded box, with a plastic bag around it. Proximity sensor still works just fine that way.
Did hand wash my car today. The soap seems to depress the freezing point a bit, as it's right at 32 outside. Reparking in the sun took care of it to finish the wash. Drying & warming up in front of the fire now. It's going to snow again mid week. But at least a few days of sparkle.
& I just purchased one of the covers, as my original complaint- the fob is too slippery for me. No Longer!

I do like our MB key fob. I did want to make mine a little bit unique and when searching the Internets I also found the cheapo silicone option. But putting a rubber rubber on a $600 or more? Piece of car remote just seemed a little silly to me. (kind of like those people who get a latest and greatest smartphone, shell out 1K+ and get a $4 case to protect it) I opted to go a little bit of a custom route and got a matching key fob to my paint code, it's even ceramic coated just like my exterior.

Did a search and couldn't find any that are color coded to Mercedes paint. I can find blue. I can find red. I can find silver. But I could not find Lunar Blue as an example. It's not a big deal. My comment was in response to someone who suggested the fob being discussed might have been custom painted. I would not go to the trouble of having a fob custom painted to match the exterior of my car.
