prolly not.
the best i could probably do is to stick a little led light in there.
i sent an email to the seller:
will this work for my 2001 civic lx? i thought replacement keys had to be programed. is this key programable? thanks
REPLY:
this key is fits but you have to have original remote ic board and you can put into this case, it works.
