EWS and magnets

Post by slparry »

On my key ring there's two keys, the bike and the house.

Not wanting the house key rattling around scratching the plastic housing I thought of getting a small self adhesive magnet off eBay (12 for a couple of quid) so the house key would stick on it on the bike.

Now this shouldn't have any adverse affect with the EWS antenna should it??

Same for me, one ignition key + fob; car and bike. Other keys on a separate ring.

A piece of 1 inch long pvc hose over the other key works fine
