Can anyone give me an update on where we got on updating our pre 2002 key fobs to the flashy silver ones? Any success with converting the EL's?:wow:

yo, since you are in vancouver, can u go to the dealer and see if you can swap out the inside with the EL fob. just prey them open and see if the TL one would fit. thanks man. I really want to swap it if possible

I will tell you, I have the Accord V6 (1998), key fob, that looks like the pre 2002 TLs key fob, and I also have the silv er key fob to my 2002 TL and let me tell you, the new silver key fobs are cheaper and scratch easily. My Accords key fob is 4 years old and looks newer than my TL fob that is 8 months old. Yes the silver fobs look cool, but they are easily damaged.

blexv6 is rite... at first the 02 ones mite look newer and nicer...but they scratch sooo easily its not even funny, my moms town and country lock is cleaner which was made in 96....

oh man. i guess i will stick with my old fob then

My sis's EL key FOB is exactly like the Type-S and there are some major scratches on it, while my '99 fob is still looking new. I don't plan to change it neither

Appreciate all the feedback...I would rather stick with durability rather than a cheapass looking FOB that's going get all ugly in a matter of weeks. Later

HAH... I love the look of new key fob for sure... but like they said, it scratch way too easy.... it looks bad with all the scratches...

Has anyone attempted putting an additional coating on the fob? Tape, clear coat, etc.? I got a loaner RSX with 5K miles. It's fob was scratched.
