[shiaokaz]

hi All

I know you all probably thinking.. WTH.. wha kinda quesiton is it.. I was in Japan 2 weeks and I got some Key accessories for Civic, Prelude, Accord and Del-Sol. but Key Blank does look exactly the same as Acura Integra..

I was wondering if anyone know the answer.. pls help me

no way to tell

depends on what year integra you have that it *might* work. if you have a later-year integra, the keys are chipped to work with the engine immobilizer...so no, those wont work.

I have a honda civic key blank that was cut to work on my teg. Mine did.

I had Lowes cut me a generic car key for my 98 GSR so it probably will work.

I guess it was a generic Honda key, same shape and size but without the HONDA or ACURA written across it.

I have a Honda key right now. I bought it from Honda and took it to Acura to have them cut it to work with the DB8. Worked like a charm. Just make sure you go to Acura to have them cut it. You need to show your registration though.

so local home depot, hardware store cant cut it for you? i do know all Honda or Acura Key are almost the same shape, but ( dont quote me on this) and the vehicle starting from 1999 + starting to have the immobilizer

I will post the pictures and show you what I got from Japan..

I understand that later yr integra starting to have the immobilizer, but the shape is still the same.. ONLY added the immobilizer onto the key

What year is your Integra?

I took mine to my local harware store to get cut. It was free since I brought the key blank in too. You can get it cut anywhere. Matt is just special.

Exactly.

It SHOULD work, take the key to acura, have them cutit , if it has immobilizer you can have acura program it to the car. Again this SHOULD work.

okay NOW i'm thinking what the hell? I thought you meant a OEM JDM key blank. then again idk if those are different than US keys but what you have is totally different--aftermarket.

but you're right the blank does look like oem blanks so the only thing we can tell you is try. try at a hardware store because i'm almost 100% sure no dealer will touch that thing! lol

My bad about my wording.. I got these at Japan ( after market part) not JDM.

I will try to ask homedepot to cut it for me tomorrow
thanks
