Very nice, specially with the middle insert... Would like one of these but £27 for a little bit of plastic seems a bit much!
 
Yes not cheap but getting stuff like this made is very expensive if you are not going to sell tens of thousands of them.
 
I like the idea of these but like the others have said the price is expensive for a minor cosmetic change, also with the fiat dealers selling the official key covers for around the same price and eBay selling them for as low as 1/2 the retail price I think you will find it hard to shift many of these. Although they are different with the button covers I personally like the contrast of the black buttons to the coloured casing.

Good luck with these though and no doubt when Mrs Devil sees these she will want the White one for when she gets her Fiat 500.

DD :devil:
 
The button covers are also going to be sold separately.
 
Seems that Cartel no longer sell these, infact they seem to sell hardly anything. Another one of those waste of space sites??? Who knows?! I particularly like the white, which is more a cream. I like the idea of the buttons being the same colour, also having spare button pads, as like all, soft cheap rubber, they wear out very quickly, and look and feel horrible when all scabby and falling to bits.

FIat in their wisdom, will not sell colour coded buttons, or indeed the buttons seprerately at all, and argue that if you want new buttons, you have to buy the whole internal part of the key at a cost of £160 plus VAT. Good one Fiat! Go to all the trouble of key covers but don't give us the button pads.

So does anyone else know where to buy different coloured buttons from?
