Has anyone tried doing the TL/RDX Switchblade key mod?
I don't know if this is less hassel comparing to the CRV key mod
So far this works on older/current gen TLs, Tsx, Rsx, Accord, CRV, ...but what about 7thgen civics?
I've searched on 8thgencivic and so far it will not work on the 8thgen cus honda changed the programming method on the 8thgens.

here are some of the links

That accord DIY was pretty slick.. Okay, and so was V6..
MAN! I wish I had an 03 or later so I could do this. Prior to 03 we had the ghetto non laser cut keys.

would prolly work with 03-05 civic

the blank key looks like the same type that the 03-05 uses. is there a way the dealer can cut the blank TL key for the civic? that would be a much easier solution than hacking away at it. all that would have to done is to switch the immobilizer chips.

The key function of it would work. As for the unlock/lock, im not too sure being that we have a whole seperate remote for those funstions. It would be pointless to do this JUST for the key portion, you might as well try to make everything work. The plus side is if you go with the TL key with the trunk button, all you have to do is replace your tunk latch with an accord trunk latch (direct bolt on) and you will also have a power trunk, granted you wire it up. Now THAT would be worth the time. I just so happen to have 3 keys for my car and 2 remotes....I may just look into doing this.

i mean, the rsx guys got it to work with their cars. do we have the same alarms as they do? if the frequencies are the same, i dont see why it wouldnt work.

Ive been trying to find it. Yes...if our alarms are on the same frequencies, you should be able to program the remote to work. I cant seem to find anything right now though.

hm...I have the accord trunk release hooked up to my compustar alarm right now where the compustar alarm brain gives off a pulse for the compustar remote trunk function, but how would the stock keyless entry brain be able to detect the signal from the TL key's trunk function if our stock keyless brain doesn't have this function?

My ultimate goal for this mod will be if the TL switchblade key can be programmed to my compustar receiver, then it'll be perfect!
