go to honda with the title or as long as the car is in you name with your insurance to show the car is yours. write down the vin number take it to the parts department and they will make you a key. the key you is the valet key that is why it won't open the trunk.

Its not entirely bullshit. you have the normal key, and the kid prolly has the valet key that only starts the car. normal key doesnt really have any teeth on it, the valet key does to make it not work in the trunk or the locking compartments.

and FYI turnk releases were put in the 95 and up del sols.

too bad i have a 94

93 no trunk release like everyone is saying. There are normally 2 keys the Honda dealers gave for the Del Sol. One standard and one Valet, the Valet key only opens the doors and turns ignition but will not open the trunk. Also, your Del Sol might have a completely different lock in the trunk due to possible theft and the previous owner might've replaced it with an aftermarket oem replacement lock. "Good Luck"...

you dont need 2 keys for a del sol. 1 key does both, and 95 models on they had a trunk latch.
