:bloated:

dealer=$$$$$$

call a local locksmith, he can come out, and make you a new key for about 25.00

as far as the dealer thing...its highly doubtful they would do that, because ignition switches go out......so it could have been replaced, and even if they do, it would cost mad money, plus i seriously doubt they have EVERY single key grind in there system

Lets start with are you locked out of your car?

keys are cheap at the dealer. I used to work in a Honda parts dept.
You can get a key cut for about $10.00(that's what we charged)
And yes, all you need is your VIN# and proof of ownership.
If you want to get something different you can have a 94-97 Accord key cut too, it will work in you Civic. I had an Accord key cut for my Integra when I had it. If you have a hard time getting factory keys let me know and I can get you some keys, Cheap. I like the factory key cause it says HONDA on it. No offense to slammed civic but the lock smoth won't have these keys.

:D u know ur an installer when u got a RCA cable on ur keys :D

thank you for the replies

no im not locked out but a locksmith is out of the question i work on a top serect miltary base

wasn't trying to say that your locksmith solution was a bad idea, I was just saying that the dealer key won't cost him an arm & leg.
and that he could get one at the dealer no problem.
sorry.

yea, i know you wasnt trying to caus problems, ur a pretty cool kid from what i ahve seen.

i was just trying to say that sometimes the dealer takes a while, when on the otherhand a locksmith could be at your door that day :D

That's cool, thank you.

Just grab them at the dealer. They're not expensive.

So you work on a TOP SECRET military base, and cant even find someone to install a new ignition/door locks?

YOUR TAX DOLLARS HARD AT WORK.:finger:

ignition and locks would run about 70.00 not worth it

why would i ask someone at work to install a new ignition/door locks on my car while at work an risk getting fired (think this is a federal building an after 9 11 alot of things have changed) .an having a mechanic working on my car instead of a tank is your tax dollars hard at work

when i could just spend 5 bucks an get a new key
