Hi all,
I would like to pick your brains a bit here. I lost one of my FD keys a few months ago and I want to know if anyone knows how to get a replacement key.
I couldn't find the little tag that came with the keys so is there any other way to figure out the code?
I found a few uncut honda keys on ebay but I don't know if they will work with my FD without the immobiliser code and they do not come with the remote part.
Any help would be appreciated..:D
Unfortunately i think it's a case of going to the dealership :(
Do you know how much the cost is to get a replacement key from a dealer?
This don't worry me much, having one key... but does anyone have any issue with selling a car that only have one set of key?
Not sure of the cost but be prepared for a lot :( Try call around and ask anyway.
A lot of people tend to sell cars with one key only. i have no clue why
300-400 me thinks for replacement key, the key itself isnt expensive, its just programming the chip
It's really not an expensive procedure to perform for them, it's just an another avenue for the dealer to rape your wallet
if you have a working key that is already programmed, it will be cheaper. They pretty much just do a copy and paste onto your new key. But if the remote or battery is dead on your current key, they're going to need to re-programme everything which will cost more. That's my experience with my dad's camry anyway. I dont think Honda will be too much different?
haha something honda dealers excel at. they should make it a performance criteria :P
Would I be able to purchase one of these

Get my local locksmith to cut it and perform the programming my self?

that won't work.
Buy a key over the net, that's fine, get the key cut locally, and for the programming of the transponder to the immobiliser, you'll need your dealer
This thread might help.
