I noticed that there is are threads that shows you how to transplant a TSX key into a '05 keyfob. However, I couldn't find any information if this can be done with a '98 accord key. Its easier to carry around one keyfob than a remote and key. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks.

 

Perhaps you didnt read through the entire thread where MrChad talks about how he tried to do it with his and then couldn't and thus owes me lunch.

 

whats a keyfob?

 

When the Key and remote is together like this one

 

I have a great Idea for my 7th gen, I hope it works. I will try and post a DIY if it does.

 

I looked into it the key I can probably get the remote to program by replaceing the encoder chip ,the immobilizer chip has to be swapped out it's easy tho on the 7th gen key as it's removeable and has to be swapped out for one from a 6th gen key (you have to gut the grip to get it out) because the 03+ have a rolling code thats why the V is stamped on the shank, I still have yet came up with how to change the sidewinder type key shank to a normal one ..

 

Yeah I looked inside mine and found out that the Remote is completely seperate from the key. You can remove the remote from the inside and they both will still work fine.

 

For those who care to see, its kinda like this.

 

if you look on the look on the lower right you will see the pellet for the immobilizer module,also the blade of the key is not come appart form the remote case thats one of the problems i'm running into ..

 

Iam gonna start working on mine as soon as i recieve my other key and keep everyone informed.
