This made my day when I heard the postman outside in the afternoon. I’m very sad I lost my last British key fob but I’m much happier now since I found this new one!! Well made, undamaged, and it looks great on my key ring. Quick ship, recommended seller. A++ and 5 stars!! Thank you for your kind service. 😀
