Good to know. Were you able to close the fob back together with both sides covered? Mine gave me a little trouble with just the front but I got it. I didn't have much wrapping folded inside it either surprisingly.

Wrapped in brushed black steel. Looks close to the OEM color but with texture. I might change it to something more noticeable.

I'm thinking I'll have to try this one of these days. Figuring I'll screw it up so I've been putting it off. Wait, I mean... I'm trying it decide what color or if I'm going to wrap the interior. Yeah, that's it!
