I FRIGGIN HATE OUR KEYS! I wish someone would just get around to standardizing FOB components and shells so any guts can go in any number of choice containers.
If you buy this key ($130): http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Hond...item2a1c618ad2 <-- I have a 2006
What else needs doing?
-----------------------------
1) I see it needs to be cut, where and how much is good?
2) Programming? where and how much is good?

it would be pretty hard to copy a key without an original key present... but then again.. like in the movie gone in 60 seconds... you can go down to the dealer and pay for a set of keys with someone elses vin...

Are you pre 06? Honda changed the security in the 06+ keys and I haven't been able to find someone that can make a copy, other than the dealer. Everywhere I called said they could do it, but they all failed.

I got another copy of my master key from my uncle who has a mechanic shop for only $35. So of you know someone that would be the way to go. Cuzz f@#k paying over a $100 for a key.

Like an above poster said, it will depend on model year. When I purchased my MY03 it only came with one key and fob. I went to a Honda dealer and got a key, a fob and the reprogramming for $160. This was in Southern California at Scott Robinson Honda about two and a half years ago.

Has anyone ever had to replace the master key and wireless transmitter for their S? The dealership quoted me about $300 to get them replaced.
I've heard that some "smart" keys can be replaced at a hardware store, but it's dependent on the make, model and year of the car.
