I bought one from profile name "long_tall_texan". Send him a PM to see if he is still in business.

I bought this cheap clip
Amazon Amazon
and used a piece of 3M double sided tape to fasten the fob onto it. Then I clipped it all onto the driver's visor. It's been on there for a year and you don't need to take you eyes off the road to use it. I also used a black marker on the stainless clip to blend in with the visor.

Got mine from the Long Tall Texan as well. So much better than being on the keychain.

Light on.... Stealth mode

Light off... Open exhaust

I opted for the push button... way cleaner I think.
