I hate carrying keys around. Do any of you have a thought on how best to handle your valet key safely? And how does one remove the existing driver side door lock cover if one wants to replace it , hiding the key hole? Thanks.

There is a thread somewhere on here about changing from a key hole handle to non key hole. Search

why are you to cheap???? j/k. i never keep mine in the car either......but i do valet, i just don't leave anything in the car thats worth money

naw not cheap. i had a friend who used to work valet at a very upscale restaurant in philly. he would take stuff all the time. CDs, change, watches, a camera. He even once came to my house in a brand new porsche gt3 and we went joy riding for an hour. i am very skeptical about leaving my car in someones hands esp since its a stick and not everyone knows how to drive stick. Also, i have no idea where they park the cars, sometimes on back lots. i can remember one time i got my car back from being valet and I got as far a 3 blocks and my tire went flat. there was a huge nail stuck in my tire. My friend put a bad taste in my mouth so i don't valet anymore..
