Display Key Case

Hey guys, just setup my display key and realize it cannot be dongled into a keychain. What is everyone using as a case? The BMW Montblanc case is grossly overpriced.

I thought I saw a thread on this topic but for the life of me I can't find it!

Appreciate the help, folks.

I use it without a case. Then again I'm a minority as I don't even use a phone case.

I'm surprised if it could be dongled to a chain link fence

yes, it's a must-have for display key. it's flexible but also at the same time it does not feel cheap and it is sturdy.

Theres a much more expensive Montblanc case that I have -- but had these been available I would never have spent the $$. On ebay you will also see some leather cases too.
