Default I need a new key chain ... ideas?

So my pewter silver Porsche crest key chain is getting pretty worn out. Anyone out there have a cool P-chain?

Since you have the driveblock/keyless alarm thing-a-ma-jig I think I would just blow off any kind of key fob in addition to that.

Actually, I was going to take out the circuit board in the remote and fit it into the Porsche key. Wouldn't fit. So I picked up an Audi/Style switchblade key blank off eBay. I should be able to retrofit my keyless entry into it.

Have you checked out the Porsche Design keychains? They're stupidly overpriced, but 1888store.com has them for cheap-er. I have the one with the clip and cream-colored leather and the sterling silver one with the lacquer inlay with the 911 silhouette. You can also always go with the classic Porsche Design crest keyring that's 18 bucks at your dealership and comes in a variety of colors for the leather back.

I think the worn look is just fine. Buy more gas instead.

Can you get a replacement switchblade key at the dealer as mine is cracking?

This is mine - I'm about function.

The 993 actually stays on a single ring with just the remote, but the 968 or Jeep and house and whatever get switched out on the opener. Also, I always have a keychain that I can quickly switch out keys on. The one I have now is a Dior (function, right?) that looks like handcuffs.
