Missing Car Keys...

so last time i went down to see my CRX as it rests in peace, i remember leaving without my car keys because i locked them in and i would have to break in next time i went down to it (in the outdoor parking lot). i go back down 3 days ago to grab some tools from the back and after i break in i find that i only switched the lock to the "off" position so i do it again and open the door, the keys weren't in the ignition but all my tools were still in the back and cd's and remote to my deck. now either 1 of 2 things can be possible

1- i misplaced the keys
2- some grimey nigger jacked keys from a broken car

what would you guys do in this situation? i'm thinking posting up some "lost keys" signs but after that i'm most likely gonna buy a new ignition with a matching key, and either switch my door locks or shave handles and buy door poppers. what would you people do??

If no one has replaced your ignition swtich (i.e. aftermarket), you can go to the dealer, give them your VIN and have them make you a key. I tried this once but it turned out my ignition switch had been changed so i was out like 8 bucks.

thats a awesome idea. but also the door locks are different from the ignition, i needed 2 different keys for the car, one for the door, one to start it. and i never got the car from a Honda dealer, but it was a dealership (standard auto). I wonder why the door locks dont match the ignition, did you guys ever hear of that?

Yeah if your door locks dont match the ignition, then the previous owner most likely changed the ignition switch. In that case, you wont be able to start it with the key the dealer makes for you. What ive noticed is that on most older Honda's with worn out door locks, you can pretty much use any Honda key and it will open. I always used to lock my keys in my old STD and would use my uncles CRV keys to open it. Crazy.

Actually i live in the ghetto and i'm one of the only white people around, black people around here do alot of stupid dumb things - which they're known for. So actually when you think about it there's nothing i said in my comment that isnt true. i'm sorry if i hurt your feelings in any way :crying:

If i bring my ignition to a keymaker, would they be able to look at it and make a key to fit??

Its possibel, but alot fo work, If your going to take the ignition out..and replace it later, why not just replace the damn thing now? And yes, the ignition key SHOULD open the doors as well, mine is aftermarket as well :(

there's codes on the ignition and door locks. If you can get them out, you can bring them to a locksmith and they can cut you new keys. The door ones are simple to take out, I know that much.

we are doing a build where 1 car was wrecked (it never had matching keys) and 1 car had a siezed engine (previous owner lost ALL keys) and we're making 1 car. took the ignition from the wrecked car with the key that matched along with the cylinders from the other car down to the key guy. now everything works with 1 key on the car being built. i think it was like $30 to have it all done...i'm sure that varies at different lock smith's

now everybody play nice or i'm putting it on lock down :disappoin

i dont think CivicSpoon was in any wrong doing..i was about to leave a comment based on a personal, racial, ethnic and or gender based insults, slurs or derisive comment. in offense to the douche.. u being a mod or w.e u think u are..im sure u deep down wanted to correct the dude urself.. guess its good to let it be known once in uh awhile AF got some internet police.

some people are just more mature then others

i dunno if it makes me immature to have zero tolerance for racial slurs..i mean dude is sitting here calling ppl __ _ _ _ _ _ _ but he's the one leaving his keys and tools in his car in a prone area to theft.. guess that puts him in the -doing- "stupid dumb things" category too. lol im not overeacting or nething..just said what i needed to say..no biggie.. we got all walks of life in this forum..i notice ppl love knit picking at ppl who have bad grammar and or bad taste..yeah its fun to post a funny comment about what they have done or want done..but then its just plain ignorant to keep flamin these certain ppl..then theres ppl who go way overboard and then no1 has anything to say about it lol

eh... just read your comments before clicking.

a locksmith will be able to help you. i did this in my old 88 accord. cost me like 40 bucks.

FuLL BLown STD - I already talked to LadyNRedSi about it, and I am in the wrong. She can't tell 1 person to follow the rules and allow another to get away with breaking 1.

fine and dandy dude..still doesnt change my point of view.. im not some Abolitionist..but referring any1 to be a nigger is quite indepth and very controversial..there isnt any racial slur any1 could say that would offend most of us white folks lol honky, cracker ehh doesnt bother me in the least bit lol neways ima *unsubscribe* to this post cause its not some ethnography forum:icon16:

alright so i just got back from honda, keyless... my fucking piece of shit american car VIN won't work with their computers, so now i can either go to a locksmith or buy a new egnition... which would you do? considering that someone out there may have your keys...

okay so i decided im just going to go to the junkyard and grab a ignition then bring it to honda and get them to make a key for both the new ignition and my door locks, if possible - like ladynredsi said. My question is, would ignitions from same year civic sedan's and HB's work??

Yes, but I dont think they will be able to make it match your doors as well, but they can make two separate keys I suppose.
