OMG I had that fear last week! I always put my key in the little pocket of my jeans. One day I forgot that the night before I had worn jeans and driven. Seached the house and couldn't find the key then suddenly my eye caught the laundry room door and I realized that I had washed my jeans that morning! Haha.

Luckily, after frantically seaching the jeans and washer I realized I had left my keys in the car because I had been working on it.

Shut up! I'm old.

This leads to a question I have always had. How would you hide an "intelligent" key in the Z?

Last year, while we were in Moab, Utah, my G/F lost the intelligent key to her Toyota. I got that sinking feeling that I should have hidden a spare in the car. I made many calls locally and realized just how screwed we were.

A day later, the key turned up (kicked way under the hotel bed). WHEW!

But I have learned the lesson. Now, I have the spare "mechanical" key hidden on the exterior, and the spare "intelligent" part hidden inside, with the key's battery removed and hidden inside as well.

Life was so much simpler in the good old days.

I have washed my key before and nothing happens, I have done it more than once. Key works every time.
