Key case?
Any recommendations on key case? I was thinking about this one:

I think the fob is too big as it is; I recommend none

I ordered this one from Amazon (linked below) and used it for about a week before sending it back. It made the key way too thick and looked ridiculous in a front pocket. Quality was fine though.

I have a silicone key case. It attracts dust but is cheap and does the job.

I like these cheap "Luckeasy" cases. They prevent you from accidentally hitting buttons, and are low profile. I don't put the keychain/lanyard on it. Before I got these cases I'd come out to find my tailgate up all the time! I just picked up another set for my new F87.

I kept on having that mysterious trunk popping open at the stop lights syndrome, and that style key case cured it.

If you want your key to look like it was shot through a T-1000 you could always pick up this interesting little guy from FUNFOBSG

I just use my pocket. Comes free with every pair of pants I own (even with shorts!). I honestly see no reason/value to do this.
If you have keyless entry, it literally never leaves my pocket. My past car didn't have it, and I had no issues reaching into my pocket, pulling out the fob and pressing the button. Maybe you guys lay off the beers before unlocking the car if dropping the fob is such an issue. |

Mine is standard entry and the fob seldom leaves my pocket. Even if you're not visually impaired it's no major trick to know which button is which by feel alone.
