oh ok. I call locksmith and they said they need the red key to program. I told them that i don't have it. I only have the key that i currently used. and they say the can't do it.

Im pretty sure they need the key with the transponder to get the code and embed that into the new spare key when they cut it. That is the only way you ignition will recognise it and turn on.

If you cant find the transponder key, it looks like you need to change the whole ignition thing and thats gon cost you what honda and the the locksmiths have quoted you.

*speaking of such i should clone my key now too b4 i lose mine :D

correct me if im wrong please...

Go to PREDDEYS LOCKSMITH in MIRANDA if you are in NSW,they can do the cloning from your existing key,don't need the red key, on the spot for about $80 incl key and cloning.

take your lock out, locksmiths are able to make a copy from that

like said by mrwillz.
dont need the red key..

as long as u got ur black key they can "clone" it.
honda always want abit much..

go mr minit and get it done and just cop an aftermarket key.

the red key is pretty much useless.. it's only used as a template to cut the shape, because the key is never used and would cut more precise then ur everyday black key.. red key has no chip in it.. only the black keys do.

you need to pour cement into the door lock to make a cast and then....

Kidding...kidding

Let us know if Mister Minit was able to do this for you and how much he charged you.
