    I've attached the sticky felt bumpers strips you can use on the bottom of furniture on my dash to absorb the noise of FOB hitting the dash. The tan ones match the taupe interior, you can get at a wal mart or any hardware store. In the past on my darker grey interiors, I have used the non-abrasive side of velcro. Both blend well and do the trick. I only carry a house, truck, and pop lock key on my ring as well, the fob is what I noticed usually rattles on the dash.

    FWIW too many keys weighing down on the ignition tumblers isnt good. Better to keep the keychain light. I have housekeys, storekeys etc on one, truck keys on another. Alarm fob separate in front pocket-I can hit the button right through the fabric (maybe cuz of the booster antenna:D:D)

    Try a Carabiner and how you arrange your keys helps. I'd agree about using your significant other's keys. I dunno how women can take having such a huge set of keys... Ok, well they do have purses whereas we have pockets... I guess I have just answered my own question.

    +1. My wife has every single key she's ever had in one gigantic, jangly mess. She even has keys on there for a car she no longer owns! I am embarassed as sh*t when I get out after driving her car, holding her keys.

    I could do some damage if I threw them at somebody, though.
