Fits well and protects the fob in a drop.

It seems like the silicone jackets would both pick up dust and make it difficult to get it out if your pocket.

Any issues with either?

No problem so far. Just be careful some ebay sellers sell a similar item without the hole in the back and it says Cadillac on the back. only buy one with the hole so the crest shows through.

Mine is blue of course (as I have a LB coupe).

Not only is it no problem to get out of a pocket (although I have hard and fast rule to NEVER remove the FOB from my pocket except when home or a hotel) AND the cover helps prevent butt FOBing

As I said, one reason it is helps to prevent pocket FOBing.....and it also helps to prevent the key from accidentally falling out

I got one from Southern Car Parts for my C6 and had exactly those problems - picks up all the dust and sticks to everything, making it hard to get out of your pocket.

Very nice idea. I would really like to find one to fit the 2015 convertiible fob as I tend to drop stuff. Figure it will be a while or my Google Fu is getting weak.
