Car key holder/case
 
Looking for a good/stylish car key holder/case for new 2013 A6 key....

Can you guys share your key holder/case you are using?
And where you get it....



BTW, does your sales give you any key holder when you get your car?

Why would you want a case for your remote?

Obviously this is a matter of personal preference but I have opened at least a few thousand Audi and Volkswagen keys in my day to change out the battery and most of them are filled with pocket lint and other nastiness which over time can cause the key to malfunction. I personally collect and carry ACME pens and the do not enter my pocket without a protective case, these pens new are much less than an Audi key so I personally can see why someone would want to keep their key in a case. It is probably not thought of by many people but for us hyper aware, collector types it makes perfect sense. Now we just need to carry something on our website so I can sell them to all of my forum friends out there :)

Sorry, I am not saying "case" only.
For this, I am referring to key chain, key fob...etc
Small accessories that you guys attach to your car key.

I found this mont blanc one that I might get. I think it looks great with the Audi key.

hahahahaha

Here is what I use. You can get a box of 100 from staples for $16.79 or simply grab one from your secretary's desk for free.

That's just a key ring with a strip of leather attached.
It's not a key case.
That will do nothing to protect the key.

Sorry, bad English.

My dealership gave me this.

The A6 key fob is pretty large and I first wanted a cover for it, but when shopping at the local dealership, choices were very limited. The ones that were of worthy of consideration were leather like wallet covers. They are massive and I didn't need/want to carry anything larger than I need to. The dealer suggested two after market products that are popular. First one is a silicon based slip on cover that protects the black plastic part only (just imagine a black condom for your fob...). Second was most interesting, 3M carbon fiber film like product. He told me that many BMW owners here use this instead of buying a cover/condom. It is cheap and just need patience to apply it to your key fob.

I didn't pick either since I'm lazy and not coordinated to cut out the film and didn't want friends and brother cracking jokes about a key condom.

Any way, my dealer did give me a his and her A6 key chain for free. It's nice and simple.
