Default Where to get spare key made other than dealer?

Hey, I'm looking to get a spare made for my S. Any recommendations where I can get it made?

Also anyone know if it is true you cannot pushstart a S2000 if the key is not present or within range?

I got mine made at the Honda in mission george. Less than $40 if you have the key that turns the car on. And I believe key has to be in second click to start the car. I'm not too fond of the button start since it feels like more work, keyless would be cool..

Haha, I went to the honda in mission gorge. 2 tries to cut the key and it would only unlock my door. Almost got stuck in my ignition. I just got my money back. I''ll try another dealership.

Umm....you can't push start any manual unless you have the key in the ignition.
