I had a scare end of last year, my wife used my spare key, and then left it in her jacket. I couldn't find the spare and didn't like the notion of having just 1 key, even for a little while. So I bought a 3rd key, then of course immediately found the spare. Today, I finally got the 3rd key cut and programmed.
Now I'd like to go a step further and attach it to the car. I was thinking I'd use an insanely powerful magnet box and attach it under the car to my Drawtite hitch receiver. I just looked, and that thing is really short, a very compact design, so no room to hide the key.
I'm going to put the winter tires on, and do the brakes soon, so that will give me a chance to look for good places, but in the meantime, I'm wondering if somebody already has scouted a good place.
Perhaps I'll attach it someplace accessible only with the oil drain access panel removed, and replace the screw with a thumbscrew so it won't take tools to get to.
I'm pretty confident in the integrity of the box: https://www.amazon.com/dp/ (commissions earned)
I've taken the battery out of the fob, so the car won't get upset about the proximity.
