I like it, but I think there may be a serious problem.
I carry all of my keys on one key ring. The key ring on this fob is all of the way back. Wouldn't the keys dangling 3 inches from the ignition create more leverage and therefore more pressure on the ignition switch?
No, I'm not going to carry 2 sets of keys.
So are my worries about my keys being 3 inches farther from the ignition realistic?
