Are 6th gen Honda civic keys interchangeable with any other make or model? for instance can I use a 92-96 oem Honda prelude key on a 6th gen Honda civic?

 

No.

 

are u sure because I know other makes like the prelude are interchangeable with other vehicles keys. ill look up the thread

 

You asked this question already, somewhere.

No.

 

Why do you want to have a different key? Its either in your pocket or stuck 90% of the way ib your ignition, no one will ever see it

 

If keys were interchangeable then thieves wouldn't need to break into anyone's car. They could just unlock it and drive away.

 

I was meaning, for example( prelude oem key) cut for your car.

 

Jeez.

 

Oem blanks can be used for lots of Hondas.

 

I believe vehicles made between 88-00 are all the same blanks before the larger keys were applied to all Honda/Acura models.


This is what I got from Homedepot to make like 4 copies of my key for my 99 Civic. #27r

Here's the larger key I mentioned above.

So for example: 97-01 CRV, 94-01 Integra 97-01 Prelude, 1998-2004 Odyssey. Their complete generation still retain the old style keys until the newer models were made, but the large blanks were already being applied.

large Blank:



I could be wrong, just basing the info off personal experience .



Essentially, Honda/Acura blanks are the same depending on the generation.

 

Agree^ could be wrong but afaik oem blacks from the 90's can be cut for teg's and civic's.

 

Thanx this is the information was looking for!

Do you have it already? Will you hook us up with better pics ?

 

I hope it is made out of quality materials so it doesn't break off in the ignition.

 

Im still waiting on it. Its comes allll the way from thailand, figures. I should have it by mon and as soon as i get it and have the time ill post up better pics.

 

inb4mykeybrokeintheigncylinder, thread

OP They're 7.19$ or less at your local Honda/Acura dealer you're paying more for a knock off

 

Do i tell u what do with ur money? im curious about the quality and how long it will last, only one way to find out right?

 

 

UPDATE: I got the key. took almost 2 weeks to get to me. But the key looks exactly like the pic, flawless. I know they offer different color options and I can only speak for the one I got. I swear they shipped me the key that was used as the display pic. It was also packaged as if I was receiving a newborn baby at john Hopkins hospital. Ill let the pics speak for themselves. In the pic I couldn't tell if the plastic was grippy or "slick" for lack of a better word but once I felt it in my hand its in between and I love it. I will post pics as soon as im not lazy. Don't expect great pics cuz Im using a pre-historic phone atm until I get my smartphone fixed and I haven't got the key cut yet, im thinking bout just using it to open and close my doors for awhile and see how It holds up.

 

I got both L and R lock cylinder set with two keys from Thailand. They ended up being of decent quality. They were the only matching set I could find new, and I thought it was risky but ended up as a reward.

 

O. this one is uncut and I doubt the dealer made the type of key I bought off ebay. How long have u had ur keys?
