Key holder

Postby Markdavo on Thu, 24 Jan 2019 6:41 +0000

Can you recommend a tough secure key holder I can lock onto the vehicle?

Thanks in advance,

Mark

But I found this to be a good idea:

I use this which can be hung up like a padlock or bolted onto something.

It's also aluminium and therefore doesn't allow the proximity key to work even when next to the doors, once the key is locked inside.

Another option is to just zip tie the service key to something tucked away underneath the car. Or in behind the dash somewhere. In the past I’ve zip ties a spare key to the fuel lines on the chassis rails. Crude but effective.

Gutterbolt and a wingnut for a standard key hidden anywhere gets you back into the cab....

Thanks for all your replies.

I think I will go with the simple option by zip tying the service key under the vehicle.

Cheers,

Mark

Zip ties are good and secure, but now you need to carry a knife/screwdriver/side cutters etc.
