Blackberry picture time!!
I got a spare made at a hardware store just to test if the transponder will work outside of the original key
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVQ3tGkphTc
Then i took a small hacksaw and started cuting the plastic in half. I used a magnet to locate the Transponder on what side of the key it was closest to so i wouldnt cut through it. On my key, the magnet picked it up on the side that has "T5" engraved on it, so i cut the other side
The back side should pop off with some elbow grease. The transponder is right in the middle. Its covered in rubber...........sorry for the
pics
Trim around it until you have as little plastic as possible.

Now i have to wait until the key i ordered arrives to continue....
Im hoping the end product looks like this:
found those pics while searching on

^Maybe but I don't know. I get confused with all that FCC #'s not being compatible. But I'm pretty sure I can get the Accord key to work with my CL

The switchblade key IS possible..it's just a major PITA.
I don't think it will be programmable, Marcus from HeelToe says it won't be.
Why? No idea. Going to ask an Acura stealership around here to see if I can find anything out.
Either way, if you can find a new Accord key for this cheap..
Accord Key for $20-something dollars > Switchblade for a little over $170
Annnnd now we're waiting on you Anthracite

Whats up with RDX owners?

The FCC on the Accord matches the CL? Or are you going to try to swap the guts of the key fob into the Accord key?
I have a switchblade key sitting on my desk. Ive had it for a few months. Im trying to figure out a way to get it to work with the CL.

Eh, its an insanely good price, but like you, I'm not so tech savvy.
I'm interested to see what happens with the Accord key though.
Hurry the hell up Anthracite!

Sorry to keep you guys waiting but after not receiving any info from the seller, I sent him an email.
His response was this.........
"Thanks you for your interest in this item. I am currently unable to ship it out."
He did refund my money so I did make another purchase
I decided to go a different direction while some of you will probably prefer the accord key, others will like this surprise

Can you give us a hint? Does it have the (A) on the back or the [H]?
