How to stop keys rattling?

These are the pics of the Tacky Matting, aparently my wife gets it from Safeway ???

I use one of the cheap aluminium 2" carabina's that you hook onto the belt hoop of your trousers.
When I'm driving I can simply unhook the single key from the rest and I don't have a large swinging bunch of keys scratching the plastics around the ignition.

I have one of those! - made it when I was 10!

It works very well thank you, stops keys from rattling & from jabbing you in the leg when keys are in your pocket.

Thanks guys for all the ideas - I'm glad it's not just me that's had fun with this.
I might try a snap clip or something - it's driving me mad. btw - it is a diesel and I have a LOUD stereo but it's just not enough .....

I expect the blutack would go sticky in my pocket when I wasn't driving ....:angel:

That's what I do. Makes it easier to carry around if you don't need all the keys.
It'll never bang about on your dash and you won't bugger your ignition barrel or lock.

Keys on

Parramatta Leaques club badge and you live in Brisbane??
The Dooleys badge also ads extra weight :)

No small wonder you ditch that lot, the weight would bugger the ignition barrel. :D

Been a member of the leagues club and the "football" club (member #14:D) for exactly half my life later this month.
Dooleys - best boozer in Australia.
Tragedy is an over used word. The Somme and the Tsunami were tragedies....Tom selling Dooleys was much worse :cry::spudnikcry::dbcry::dbcry:

I used velcro too. Works fine.

nothing wrong with them laddie..... they came along just after the wide leather watch bands of the sixties. :p Then when we grew up and started getting work we realised we needed more than one key, and the car key didn't have all that plastic wrapped around it, and we had work keys, padlock keys, roof rack keys ... so we had to give up on the leather pouch syle.


A truly Australian version would be the leather kangaroo scrotum keyholder... (a bit like the little money pouches you can get...) I reckon they'd sell for Toorak tractor owners.


And yes we painted our fences mission brown back then too.:D;)

try this.. accesory from TOUGH casual wear. come in leatehr or aluminium.
my one is made of leather and can store up 6~10 keys in it, depands on the thickness of your keys.

pull out only the key you need and the rest stay inside

put in all the keys when not using, safe to keep in your pocket as well.
