HI all,

So I am about to purchase a used Civic. The car does NOT come with a keyless / remote keyfob... I know Honda dealerships probably sells them for about $100? I was wondering if anyone knew other places where I might be able to get them for cheaper.

Thanks,
jt

 

What year is the civic you are buying??

I ask because '06+ has the fob built into the key.

 

Ebay.

he was answering the OP's question

 

it's a 2006... yea you are right the fob is indeed part of the key for that model. the key+cutting was $36, but not programmed! (not for keyless entry, but the chip inside the key to get the car started) that would cost extra $90ish by the dealer! I imagine this is not somehting we could do ourselves?

Ahh, my bad. I missed that last part in the OP.

 

hey OP

hit me up.. PM or whatever.
There are two dealers down here I might be able to get you a little discount at.

where are you in atlanta?

 

Hey IT Guy

Thanks man for the help. The dealer from which we bought the car from actually agreed to pay for half of the cost... so it was $45 for us to program the chip in the key.

Lemme know about anything else.

 

I still think you got it handed to you. An 06 is barely used, if you bought it certified from a honda dealer I would have demanded the key from them. If they want to keep that car on the lot and watch it lose value, they can, or they can send you home with it at a loss of $95
