A key plate structure for an automobile includes a key plate (1) and a key head (3). The key plate is composed of a head part (2a) and a key part (2b) while the key head (3) is composed of a casing part (5) made of hard synthetic resin and an outer cover (6) made of soft synthetic resin. The casing part encloses the head part and a part of the key part of the key plate. The outer cover operates to cover the casing part entirely, provided with an opening through which a part of the key part projects outwardly. The casing part has an electronic part (4) installed on one side thereof and adjacent to the key plate. The outer cover has flanges (11a) formed on a periphery of the opening while the casing part has projecting rims (12) formed on one edge thereof. In operation, the flanges of the outer cover are urged and fixed on the surfaces of said key plate, respectively, by the projecting rims. <IMAGE>
