Where did you order it from the Z store? Or the japan site? Maybe we can get our hands on the back-up camera too.

okay, i've imported things from japan. why do we HAVE to import? because for some reason almost 99% of japanese products that are sold online in japan will only to within japan. errr....

so you have go through any agency where they will locally purchase the item or order them from any japanese website, auction site, etc. after they receive the item, they will ship it to you.

one thing bad about these services is that they charge you for bank fees and commission fees. and of course, there is a shipping charge.

i had some left over credit from my last purchase, so i bought the fob protector at for like 70 bucks USD after all said and done.

two agencies i recommend -

FromJapan

&

Japan-Acution-Agency

update on my status order from JAA aka Japan-Auction-Agency - i placed my order on 3/06/10. the item was shipped out on 3/10/09 and on 3/11/09 it's already in the US Customs department. i'm probably looking at the end of this week and it's in my hands.

for me, when i want sometimes, it's all about the time. i saw the 10-15 days and i was kinda turned off. i needed this sucker NOW!!!!

The issue I have with both the factory and aftermarket cover is that they are both soft-shelled. My wife tosses her Intelligent Key into the abyss of her purse, I, into mostly 501's. In both instances, these cases provide no protection against inadvertently pushing buttons. Hard-case is the route to go.

Found something on this waiting for AK to let me know if I can post it

Hey guy...I can't find where you ordered this Key Fob Protector...can you help? I really like the way it protects the fob buttons and has the Z logo.

arcticreaver · 03-13-2009, 05:13 PM

so you guys see the pictures right?

LenZToy · 03-13-2009, 05:26 PM

Nice! But $75?

arcticreaver · 03-13-2009, 05:29 PM

i think i paid like 72 after all said and done. which includes shipping.

I wish I knew how to sew. I'd roll these stupid fob covers out for $60 a piece and laugh all the way to the bank. It looks cool but $75 for two small pieces of leather sewn together is nuts.

I've got to agree!! Thats just rediculous. Actually now that you mention it, I got a wife that can sew pretty damn good. I might have to tap into those skill before I spend $75 on this
