Not anymore but their are some from the past floating around that would "pop" the key out like the BMW/Mercedes, etc etc. You can get a cover from ebay for about 7 bucks shipped but thats about it.

Or. . . you could take yours apart, and paint it the body color of your car. It is a PIA, but it looks cool for a while, if you put enough clear on it!

do NOT place an order with these folks. if you continue to read up on them and their product, even though they still have a website that is up, they have failed to deliver the product to the last folks who bought from them. there was a long series of threads on this about a year or so ago. be very careful if you consider an order with them. read up on the stuff that has been posted here. (please note that the pictures and the original post in the referenced thread are from 2005 and are not current in the least).

buying one of the various covers available will be your best choice. it may not be fancy, but at least you will still have your $$ and your fob.

That's a no go, those guys can't deliver and that thread is years old. Let me pm JW/c5bears fan and see what they can do with one of their vendors seems like lots of interest and I'll be honest we should have a nice fob/key.

I'm also interested

I just bought a 2004 Z06 and the key/fob is falling apart, it is bulky and antiquated. It has come apart a couple of times while starting the car. Something more 21st century would be great or a new OEM one would work.
