Title: standard 1.4 golf key use query
Post by: Gears on 17 September 2010, 20:39
i did a search but all i was getting was every single post with the word key in it, i was wondering if anyone could shed any light onto what this is used for on my keyring. i thought maybe for the aerial  but it dont do anything with it.(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs623.snc4/58322_430969258315_555623315_5152278_550771_n.jpg)
