Tonight I realized that with each new vehicle I get, there is this strange, almost religious feeling to make a new keychain for that new vehicle. As if it needs to lay out on the table and look perfect by just tossing them. Always removing or adding keys/tokens. Seeing as this 318ti is going to be my 10th vehicle in the 10 years I have owned, just never noticed how much I change my keys around. Anyway so as the thread states, lets see em. Am I the only one crazy about my keys?? Strange thread I'm sure.  |  |  | | 12-30-2011, 05:18 AM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: maritimes Posts: 1,433 |
lol no pics but im kinda the same way. A few years ago, I had to go to the BMW dealer to see about a part I wanted immediately - its an hour away but i wanted to go for a rip anyways so I didn't even bother calling - of course they didn't have it, so instead of leaving with nothing, I bought a super overpriced $50ish keychain. Now when I bought my 2nd car, I had to have another fancy keychain. For some reason too, I like to have those fake climbers carabiners on my sets, even though i don't hook them on anything... lol __________________ 11/97 Base  328Ti

I used to carry keys that I only rarely used, then I got tired of having the keys wear a hole in my pants. At the moment, there are only 4 keys: Car, apartment, mailbox, and P.O. Box. Wait... there are 5 keys... what the hell is this other key for? LOL __________________ Real men know how to SEARCH!

I'll play. the two loose keys up top are the spare keys for my Outback and my 95 ti that I keep in my wallet, the ti one is missing the front cover. lower left is the keychain I currently carry with me with my E46, Outback, home and work keys and the lower right is the keys for both of my ti's with the tag from the dealer from when I got the 95. during the summer that ring just gets added to my other ring.  | | | | | 12-31-2011, 04:57 AM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2011 Location: Philly Posts: 605 |
Nice topic, btw. I used to do a house key and lanyard combo with some other goodies. But now I've preferred and kept it simple with less jingle-jangle. | | | | | 12-31-2011, 07:57 PM | #7 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: norcal - 94590 Posts: 3,186 |
Since I currently have 5 cars, there is no way I carry them all around daily... I swap the car keys that each have their own little ring and clip that on my daily carry key ring, which just has my house, office and garage keys... __________________ James 95 active w/leather interior and sport interior conversion, Vaders, full M-Tech exterior conversion.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/330582097744...ht_1041wt_1074 found them!  I was searching for "button" before so I tried a few different words, I don't believe this will fit an E46 key though | | | | |
