Thank you for the video!! I bought the key shell on ebay for less that $6.00, then had it cut for $10.00 at a local shop....$16.00 vs. $40.00 the shop was going to charge for providing the shell and switching out the parts for me. Thanks!
I used to. The swing out style keys that I have dealt with were very low quality and hard to work with. I know customers like them, so I sold them and just put up with the hassle. When keys started coming back from customers with failures in the mechanical mechanism, I stopped selling them.
The retainer is for use during key production (before the factory adds the remote and back). A small amount of putty or adhesive holds it fine while you are working on the key. The back of the key is really the retainer.
Thanks for the video!
Where can i buy plastic housing? Just at Honda?
and
Does Honda still sell the older ones, with a small place for the immobilizer chip?
