Where do you put your keys?
During the winter months, I alwayz kept the key ring in my jacket pocket (too bulky for pantz). Now, the weather is getting warmer ... So I'm wondering where most of you fair weather RL pilots have been placing your keys? Throwing them on the passenger seat was a pain ... They rolled around in turns. Putting them in the tilt-out door pocket was even worse. Anybody have a good suggestion?
Side Note: I really do like the keyless entry & ignition on the RL. When I had the updates done, I was handed the keys to a loaner and, with a straight face, asked the service manager to remind me how to use these "old fashion" keys to start a car.

So far it has been in the pocket, even in shorts. If you find this too bulky you might want to try on the top of the coin holder behind the shifter...I put my cell phone there when it is charging and it doesn't move around too much.

Keeping them in your jacket is a good way not to go off and leave your jacket somewhere. This time of year, when it starts out cold and then warms up during the day, it is easy to leave your jacket somewhere.
Reminds me of an old lawyer. I was in the courthouse one day looking up deeds. A lawyer was there, left, and in a few minutes he returned. He said he had forgotten his hat. Said he always put his keys in his hat and that way when he got to his car he would remember he had forgotten his hat. Pretty good idea.

I have a key chain that seperates. I leave my keys in my car and put the keyless remote in my pocket. No more bulk. Just dont lose you remonte or your SOL. But I also have my valet key hidden outside of my car.

I'm really surprised that nobody leaves their
keys in the little tray marked Not An Ashtray
underneath the stereo/nav console.
I get in my car, throw my keys in that little tray,
and I am on my way!

I keep my key fob and attached house key in my pants pocket or jacket pocket if the weather requires a jacket. On a recent 4-day golf trip to the mountains, however, I wore a small fabric money belt and kept my key fob in there the whole trip. That way, I didn't have to worry about leaving my key in the hotel room or in my golf bag and yet I still had complete access to the car whenever I needed it. I find it a pain to carry my keys in my pocket when golfing since I have tees, provisional ball, ball-mark repair tool, scorecard, cash to pay off golfing bets, tip the cart girl etc. and other things already in my pockets.

The bulkiness of the remote is somewhat of a nuisance to me because I normally only carry on my person the one key that starts a car...everything else is in a briefcase.
However, I find that when wearing Levi's jeans, that the watch pocket holds the remote very nicely...have to remember it's there before tossing into the washer!
