Default Found in the glove box

Meant to snap a pic, but I forgot. It is in the very back of the glove box, and it looks like a key fob with no buttons, and a hole in the middle.

Anyone know what it is?

It's for the small plastic key that you may have aka valet key.

I just figured out what it was myself.


It is indeed, a valet key. It will key the ignition, and nothing else. If you have comfort access, the valet key WILL NOT work. It's only for the ignition.

Cool. I originally thought it was some type of valet, but I didn't see any electronics in it, so I didn't think it would start the car.
