My key broke from my key ring. Covers?

Does anyone know where I can get a cover for my key? I lost my other 2 keys because of the rubber part of my key breaking and now it has done it again on the last key that I have. I really don't want to spend $100 for a new set of keys. Any recommendations on where I can go to get a big enough key cover?

Anyone have this problem and have a solution for a fix?

drill a small whole in the plastic part of the key, just make sure it in the center so you don't get the chip, I have done this before. file off the "ears" that are left after the top portion broke off for a smoothe finish.

just look at bottom of key. There is a rectangular indent in key for chip. On top of the key opposite to it drill a hole and attach it to your set of keys.
