Key Fob

I lost my damn key fob!! Can I just simply go to an Acura dealership and get a new one?? If so anyone know what the cost would be??! I've seen them on e-bay, would i be better off just gettin one from them and then having Acura program it?? Thanks!

That sux man, yeah if i were you guys, i'd get them off ebay and program them yourself or just have the dealer program them if you can't figure out how. They will rape you for new key fobs. Just get em off ebay and program em yourself.

???? unless I'm mistaken you could put it in an envelope and send it through the regular mail. It would cost like 39 cents or whatever it costs in Canada.

You can get newer ones, I am planning no doing this at some point. Motohip I believe or someone on here wrote a write up on it, just search. Tells how you need certain FCC id's and only certain honda/acura fobs have it. But it's doable, there are also writeups on here of how to program them, just search.
