I feel that i have to ask, why were your keys under your bonnet? Shouldn't they have been in your pocket?

Is it a worthwhile investment switching to SP grilles to stop unwanted intrusions?

Errr please don't try this! As the OP said they are resting on the battery. It could short the battery by touching both + and - or blow all the fuses in the fuse box that is next to battery.
Worse.... Advice.... Ever

Don't know how big your keys are, but mine would struggle to touch the positive terminal and any part of the body work at the same time, let alone the negative terminal.
Still a pretty daft idea though because it would take quite a bit of luck to bounce the keys off the battery in such a way that they have a clear drop to the floor. On mine the battery tray and air intake pipe would be in the way.
Worst advice ever would be try using a coat hanger bent into a hook and reach up from underneath to try and drag the keys from the battery. That is unless your battery positive terminal has insulation over it!

Why would you have both keys on same key ring,the other one is called "spare" for reason,to be used in times you lose the 1st key.
