You painted that plate to match your other deck HW and rub rail, right? (I assumed, as it looks like the same metallic silver color to my eye.). Worst case, I figure you could fill the hole and re-spray the plate.
Sorry if I made any new work for you. . I will say I'm WAY happier with my setup now. I had about 5 of those lanyard keys stashed on the boat in case it vanished.
(BTW, if anyone needs any spares, I have a whole fleet of them.)
