What do you keep with your car keys? Share pics here

SS-Traveller · 6th March 2020, 19:50

The keys of our cars are very important to us, and we attach a few other things on the same keychain. And given a chance, some of us like to show them off too.

For example:

What do you keep with your car keys? Share pics here-carkeys.jpg

My Ciaz key has apart from the fob itself, a wrench to open the external TPMS sensors, and a little LED torch that runs on a button cell. The torch is a bit of a lucky charm.

There are 3 keys and a remote for the Thar - there is the OE key for the doors and ignition, and 2 keys for the tailgate and the hatch. Then of course there's the TPMS sensor wrench, as in the Ciaz. And there's a little metal tag with my wife's initial on it - another lucky charm, and she actually owns the vehicle!

Let's take a look at pictures of what you keep on your car keychains!

The only way I can remember to take the house key before I lock the door

Nothing. Just a team-bhp key ring.
1. My house keys are kept separately for accessibility and safety purposes.
2. It's difficult to carry a bulky key around and
3. it would keep on making a jiggly sound when going over bad roads (not applicable to keyless systems)

Bhatia.D17 · 6th March 2020, 22:20

I just have the Team-BHP Keychains in place.

A Key Cover also if you consider one.

Burn_out · 6th March 2020, 22:55

A keychain from 100kmph.com and carabiner on my scooter key. the Teambhp keychain on my car key.

P.S. : the leather keychain for the car key was gift from my wife, so even though I don't personally like it, I have no choice

dip27in · 7th March 2020, 00:35

I try to get hold of the OEM or brand key ring mostly for my cars.

bj96 · 7th March 2020, 09:42

I have a perpetual Calendar with 14 year old Bullet key. I have since turned presbyopic, can't read date without specs now

.

Had a Swiss army knife with Safari's key. It has been migrated to Harley now since I sold Safari two months ago.

BMW, dealer provided pouch is too cute and comfortable. Haven't added anything in it. Rest are Honda and TVS with just the key rings with beautiful artifacts a roadie will love. Both gifted to me by friends

Fordlover88 · 7th March 2020, 11:07

Just a normal "Ford" keychain.

GTO · 7th March 2020, 11:24

I absolutely detest carrying or keeping anything unnecessary, and am a lover of simplicity. Be it my car keys, car interior, office desk etc.

Just the Team-BHP keychain:

Even the gate key is kept separately (inside the glovebox). My house keys on the other hand, always carry a bunch of 12 keys on me :(.

dileepcm · 7th March 2020, 19:11

Starting from left top
-Two access keys (my office and client office). They are placed on a 'easy to unhook' pull on lock as I need them to be taken out from main key chain to open the parking gates while entering office.
-Two door keys belonging to back doors of home
-Remote+Key VW Golf 1.6 TDI Bluemotion 2015
-Key for main door of home - Intentionally placed on the right side of the keyfob to make it easier to grab while taking key out of pocket

-The 'trendy' keychain - grabbed from a local shop a year or so ago.

May be the odd man out

. I just have a metal ring with my Hyundai i20 Key to hang it in the key stand. Somehow I feel, key chains are cumbersome to keep in pockets.

Ali3n · 9th March 2020, 11:13

Nothing fancy here. Just my car and bike keychain along with the house main door keys so that i dont forget to take them. Bike keychain also has a helmet lock key.

I sure am one of the very few people who like to carry no key rings. I also think that there is no need for any ring for a smart key as this. It is bulky on its own and never have I ever lost it or had difficulty finding it due to no key ring.
In case you are guessing, yes I am that kind of a person who does not use case on a phone.
