You can get those keys at either an Acura or Honda dealership. I dunno of anywhere else.

There are 2 types of keys, the one you have, which can be reprogrammed numerous times and one that can be programmed only once to your car. The key that came with the car is kind of like a CD-RW but those keys if you purchase them are expensive and is the ones that usually cost around 250. If the Dealership said that is only ones they have he's either lying or they ran out of the other ones (which i highly doubt it). There's the other ones where they can only be written to once like a CD-R and they cost like between 40-80 i believe. I can't remember exactly how much but i just know those ones are not expensive. Happy hunting

risktypeS, i never thought of that. If so they do have keys that written like CD-R for a cheaper price than the CD-RW alike. Maybe they tryin to make a big bucks out of me. Damn dealer these days. I'll check with honda, might be cheaper. Thanks
