I just have a standard MB silver key chain

the leather switchblade style case did catch my eye, but it fills the key chain hole so you can't chain anything on them.

I have 2 different versions of the leather "protector". As far as the attachment issue- I put a grommet on the side and attached a small ring to it could be attached to my regular keys. I love it!

X3 and 2012 C coming soon
I bought some of those covers a while ago. Mine are shaped more like the key though. I never hang keys off my vehicle key while it's in the ignition.

Hello all. Does the following key ring / chain exist in black maple? Trying to match the interior of my C350.

Can you please post a pic. I wanted to buy this for my wife but could not find a way to attach to the key chain.

Those covers might be nice if you have Keyless Go and keep the key in your pocket.
I like keychains, especially ones with a nice heavy feel to them. The crystal cube is my favorite looking one but the most uncomfortable to carry in your pocket. The BMW one opens up like a locket and I have a picture of Mrs. VF in her roadster inside.

you cut a hole and put the grommet on yourself?

Yep! Bought a grommet kit at Wal-mart for $8. Came with the punch and an assortment of grommets in different colors. Wasn't thrilled with the colors so I bought some stainless ones.
