Part number 35113-S6M-30, 1本3400円!
Is it just stick the cover on the key??

[MRFIT]

3400 yen? that's quite cheap...... the original key already cost like 80 bucks....

what I want is the Merc style keys..... press a button and the key flips out.... does anyone know if its possible to buy a blank Merc Key (if its available) and cut into a Honda key? and set the frequency of the remote too? I would pay up to 150 bucks for one..... even 200 :D

[TypeG]

but our key got chip inside
and need to special cut my Honda
i ask a replacement key with remote buttons in it cost $500
wooooo GOD LIKE KEY

[jefflei]

yaa...and u need to provide the CODE printed on a plastic tag. if that tag (or the serial) is lost, they can't cut u a replacement key. that's crazy. you may need to change the entire lock and immobilizer system.:D
i think 3400yen is just for the blank key that has no remote control....to cut and code the key by Honda is another story of $$$:(

[Philip Lee]

i think it's too much of an hassle. just change the H logo on the key.

btw do u guys get that key code thingy when u got your car?? my dealer kept it and said Honda Australia keeps them so no one would lose it or something. this sound fishy to me....

[jefflei]

yaa...get some stickers and stick it over the black badge, my frd is doing this kind of cutting stickers business :D

no, my dealer LH homebush gave me the tag and asked me to keep it safe:thumbdwn:

[Philip Lee]

no, my dealer LH homebush gave me the tag and asked me to keep it safe:thumbdwn:
damn!! should i ask for it back??

[DavidLing]

damn!! should i ask for it back??
yes! they gave me the tag with the code and the number. I think they shouldn't keep your tag since this is your personal stuff. If they have the code, they can cut your key and make the chip to open your car at anytime!!

had a locksmith come to work today and he was telling me a few weeks ago how he bought this little PDA looking thing that plugs into your ECU, e.g under the jazz and it lets you reprogram new keys for the car. He paid $11,000 for it and it costs a few grand just the database for one few brands of cars, cant program merc or BMW keys as they have their slightly more difficult system and apparently requires taking back to dealership.


Group order through Tanghy? Tanghy are you around

what plastic tag thing?
this is news to me..... i only got a piece of cardboard...
but then again.. my car was used... .... ....

[MRFIT]

I think its a little metal tag.....

[jefflei]

maybe different dealers do it differently. I only got the CODE on a plastic tag.

may someone has it on cardboard tag or metal:confused:

PhilipLee I think you may ask them if you can get the CODE back and keep it by yourself.

[Philip Lee]

PhilipLee I think you may ask them if you can get the CODE back and keep it by yourself.
yeah i better do that. i think they wanna keep the tag so that if i lose my keys, they can rip me off for a replacement.....

[jefflei]

yes. but our concern is that we can't make sure the CODE is safe inside the dealer. :D so better DIY:thumbsup:

[tanghy]

if u guys are sure u can by pass the chip, i'll get u the keys

[muli]

tanghy, how much can you get that key cover for?

[tanghy]

it's not a key cover
it's a KEY

[kenshin]

Honda brings new meaning to the phrase 'up sell'...

[muli]

so how much for the key tanghy?

if you reprogram a key without the code you have to reprogram the ECU.

My key code is written into my owners manual
