Replacement Keys and Replacement Keyless fob?

Where is the best place to get a replacement key?

Wal-Mart quoted $150, I can only imagine how expensive the stealership will be...

What is the best place to get a keyless fob?, I saw some decent deals on ebay, but im looking for additional input.

Thanks!

Also, once you get the key can anywhere that cuts keys just cut it for you? (i.e. home depot)?

Re: Replacement Keys and Replacement Keyless fob?

I have never ordered from there personally but have seen it mentioned on here. As far as I know anyone can cut the key you just need to get it programmed. Even if the dealer has to it would be cheaper to buy the from amazing keys rather then the dealer. I didn't know Wal-Mart could program them. Maybe you can do it yourself if there is a procedure available.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

You can imagine all day long, and never know.

Call and ask.
Some charge more than others.
Many places can obtain and cut the keys. Not all can program them.
Some lock shops may have the equipment to program keys. Call and ask them too.
Same for box stores.






From a Honda catalog:
Black headed key, $49 USD, MSRP
Gray key, same price.
Cutting of the keys is generally included for that price.
OE fob, $75. (I think that price is for a pair of fobs, and DIY programming is easy.)
Cheaper online.

We (the dealer I work for) is relatively cheap compared to others.
Programming keys, we charge about $65 (one key or a bunch, same price). Other local dealers might be double that.

There is no DIY for key programming.
