mugen_dom,
did you get your key cut already?

do you need to switch the chip before you can program the lock, unlock, and panic buttons? If you do.... i feel the need for a DIY to be done

 

no its just the TL key fob, it comes with a blank key that needs to be cut.

 

so cut the key to your honda fit's key?

and then re-program it?

thanks

 

basically, yes.

you may need to replace the TL chip with the fit chip prior to programming it.

 

Hope everything turns out well i'm excited to do this if its successful, thanks for being the first to try it out!

 

Thanks!!

I would like to do this diy also!

 

So the only thing you need the dealership to do is to cut the key? And you can program the remote TL fob to unlock, lock, etc. on your Fit by yourself? I don't understand the part where Mugen_Dom said you have to unlock the memory seat function. Lastly you would have to implant the Fit's key immobilizer into the TL's key right?

***Update***
I was reading and i think to unlock the memory seat function you just press the "Lock" and "Unlock" button as the same time until the LED blinks twice. Someone verify this?

 

Yep. You dont need a dealer to program the key, it is a series of pressing keys on the remote, and turning the key in the ignition, etc. From what i read its fairly simple. The only difficulty would be implanting the immobilizer. I cant wait for this mod

 

FYI

I did the immobilizer transplant last night. It's not as hard as i thought. Took me about 15 minutes.

I'm going to see if i can get the key cut sometime today and if it works, then i'll do a DIY.

Cheers!

 

Sweet can't wait! Thanks man!

 

Got the key cut and it works like a charm!!!

Watch for a DIY sometime tonight (if i have time) or maybe tomorrow!

 

Congrats man, ill be looking forward to this DIY.

BTW: Where's the best price to get the Key fob at? I checked on Acura Parts @ AcuraAutomotiveParts.org - Genuine Acura OEM Parts from Acura Carland and its $59.67. Best price i found so far.

 

Rep'd! I will do this SOON!

 

hey JDMchris you wouldnt happen to have the ability to get this key fob in bulk for a discount would you?

 

Good idea!

 

i will look into it.

 

man this is interesting. i think ill follow this thread for the updates on the bulkness status

I would be happy with the conversion from the Base Remote with separate Key to Sport Base with embedded key. Anyone done this?

Thanks,
