Completely redesigned key fob
 
Hello all, I recently got a 2017 Camaro and there are a few things that feel cheap to me. I like to make "things my own" so the first thing I'm going to take on is completely redesign the key fob. The only part that won't be remade is the motherboard itself. I have a few ideas but right now it will be made of polished rhodium brass with a plastic strip containing the buttons covered with black leather and red stitching. It will be a robust, modern and industrial style key fob held together with viable M3 screws. This idea is in its infant stages right now and will likely take a few weeks to compete. I would love to hear your ideas, and suggestions. If you would like to follow along I'll post here and I made a album with all the photos at https://photos.app.goo.gl/VOFXDbk2VPurRNQv2

Thanks!

Following, what about the Convertible cars? Or, those without remote start, but are convertible? I have this issue with remote covers. Purchased a remote cover that has the remote start image but it's really for the convertible top since the car doesn't have remote start (manual).

Sounds like an interesting project. I'd like to see how it turns out.

If you don't already have access to a 3D printer for prototyping... let me know. I can make mine available. I have PLA, PETG and ABS filaments in various colors.

This is really interesting. I would like to see the results. You could have a good small business thing going here.

I like the fob for the Camaro but I am interested in what you make.

Some of you are responding to a post that's more than a year old and the OP hasn't posted anything since July 2018
