See full text

An example mobile device case is described. In one implementation, the mobile device case includes a housing that surrounds at least a portion of a mobile device. A capacitive touch button is disposed on the housing and associated with a vehicle function. A user activation sensor initiates monitoring of the capacitive touch button in response to a user contact. A vehicle control module senses activation of the capacitive touch button and, in response to sensing the activation, initiates the associated vehicle function.
