My 2c worth on my experience with keys.
I was quoted over $300 from a dealer to get a spare key for my CL9. What I am doing is getting a blank key online. Got one for around $8 including shipping.
Got an old key from ebay to reprogram the remote. Turned out the immobiliser chip wasn't right so ordered a couple of chips. My CL9 uses ID48 chips. Not sure what the CU2 uses. Maybe 8E chip?
Dealer said they will reprogram the immobiliser for $50 so once I get my blank keys I will get them reprogrammed. In all, it will cost me around $100 to get a working set. If it all works. Fingers crossed.
Interesting Chinese websites:

An Australian site: http://www.millenniumlocks.com.au/tr...er-keys/honda/ - The key blank appears to be made by Silca in Italy; part number Silca T6 (48)
Yeah I bought my chips fromt that website keymam.com. My first blank keys from ebay didn't cut properly so I've ordered a couple of blank keys from them. Hopefully it's not all a waste.
This guy does cut and reprogramming. Located in NSW. He also sells blanks too, might be worth checking out.

my cu2 has this on the remote
FCC MLBHLIK-1T
IC 2500A-HLIK1T
The accord has the same I think. not sure it is the ID48 chip
in perth. why?
I believe the CRV has the same
It could be the frequency for operating the remote that's the same for all the newer hondas.
I don't know about the immobilizer chip though
Nigel's Shoe Repairs did a good job of cutting my blank key in Perth city. $15
now i need to reprogram the immobilizer transponder chip for that spare key.
I read that they can just read the frequency off the original key to reprogram the new transponder. No need to reprogram the immobilizer unit.
Anyone can confirm whether this is true?
Burswood Honda said they can reprogram for $60 but cannot guarantee it will work because the chip may not be the same?
How can I check the chip ID required for a CU2?
There is A1 locksmiths & Diamond Lock and Key who may be able to reprogram but they also said that they cannot guarantee it will work.
Not sure about the price though.
