Default TOM's key fob holder for Lexus IS

New key holder




Some might think its pointless but so are a lot of mods in our car.. I think its pretty cool if you only have one key to carry..

This makes it easier to forget your key in the car.

I have no use for it. But I was tempted to get it. Tom's goggles.

Useless add-on for the owner, but very useful add-on for the thief.

LOL, what a silly mod. Just adds clutter IMO.

How much does the "Tom's" logo add to that $1 piece of plastic?

It doesn't seem like a practical addition, either - how many people just carry the Lexus fob without other keys attached?
