[QUOTE="JonFrum, post: 922393, member: 18044"] So true. Holding the rubber cover out of the way just adds to the madness. I've even had lockboxes installed upside down so pressing the correct buttons in sequence is like a unexpected IQ test. Sometimes the lockbox is mounted [U]vertically[/U] to the left of the driver's left toes, so if the lockbox isn't closed, or closed properly, it's even easier for the spare key/fob inside to bounce out and possibly fall out the driver's door without the driver knowing. My advice to all drivers is to get your lockbox code, memorize it, and practice opening your lockbox someplace safe, where there is plenty of light. Try to memorize the layout of the numbered buttons so you can enter the code like Stevie Wonder does when he looses [U]his[/U] car keys. (Which he does a lot, I'm guessing.) I always do it by braile because the lighting is so poor inside the building, and worse outside. To re-lock the box you have to enter the code again. You can't just close it and expect it to lock. It takes several practice runs to get comfortable opening and re-locking it. Do it now, before you need to in a rush. I shift a lot of package cars so every night I need to get a spare key/fob out of a lockbox because the driver left with his fob dangling from his belt. [/QUOTE]
