I am in, do I need to buy a blank fob and send it to Marcus, or do I send a copy of my key. Where are you located Marcus?

$40 to get the key cut and programmed from the dealer? That is a good deal.

Hey Marcus thanks for the courtesy call to see if my product was satisfactory
I was at work when I got the call but I forgot to call you back.

yeah everything works great just need to get it programmed but it fits into all the locks with ease.

Hey guys if your thinking about doing business with Marcus I would have to recommend with flying colors. Great communication and he even gave me a courtesy call on his product. Not too many people that you never see doing business with will take the time to do that. Thanks again

NEwsflash: Heeltoe has committed itself to long term key cutting and supa fast switchblade key turn-around shipping by purchasing their own key cutting machine! These things are not cheap!!!!! But this model, purchased in lightly used condition, provides smooth and fast cutting for the ultimate in service to our customers!!!!!




Also, coming soon we will be offering switchblades with RDX plates for RSX customers, as well as 03-07 Accord fob/key combos for those looking to reduce the weight of their keyrings without the expense of a full-on switchblade. Here you see a pile of keys waiting for the next milling session!

Hey there folks, we have finally completed our lengthy Milled Key instruction document! Download it here:

It details all information you might need to order and cut the key.

Such an issue is due to improper milling. Lock wear will effect the cut being correct, but the key should slide into all locks freely and completely cut or uncut.

He more than likely does/will.
Shouldn't be too much to add shipping.

I got my key from csmeance [sp?]---The key was milled to a US key and it seems that Canadian Key is slightly different... so it does not fit in the glove box or the trunk door. It only fits into the driver's door and ignition [which are the main things--thank goodness].

If you do purchase it---do not bring it to any dealership. Fairway Acura confirmed to me that majority of Acura dealerships use the duplicating machine--so your cut won't be spot on.

It is $10 additional postage for Canadian shipping

The Canadian key is identical csmeance's keys must have been inconsistently milled. I can email you a link to a canada specific thread where we sold at least a dozen of our keys with nary a fitment issue.

I had mine cut at the dealership and mine works fine. However I would have had Marcus cut it but he didn't have his fancy cuttin machine there when I bought mine

To anyone thinking of buying from Marcus (MrHeeltoe), do not hesitate he is the best.

There is a very informative download as well as pics of the FLP key versus the competition. Check it out!

QUESTION!!! Ok I have my car in for service at Acura because of the stupid leaking clutch line Anyways I have the SBK that Marcus did for me back earlier this year. I still haven't programmed it...i know i know.

Ok so my car is there and I told my tech to program the key and he brought up the fact that since I have a Viper 591 alarm with remote start which has my valet key in the box wont that affect the remote start?

Basically, If I have a new key programed I need to know if it will knock out the signal to my valet key that remote starts? Thanks

ANSWER!!!


Yes it will. All the keys would need to be reprogrammed together.

But, have you tried starting the car with the cut switchblade? If the valet key is in the car it might be providing the immobilizer signal constantly thereby making the need to program the new key moot.

Yeah I tried just the key and it turned over for a sec then died then would not turn over again. So I guess I cant remote start the car anymore ?

No, you just need to pull out the valet kit and reprogram it along with the rest of the keys. Follow up with the remote start manufacturer or installer for more details on what the impact is here on you. There is a way around it for sure, don't give up.


The easy way might be for us to just chip swap from another factory key. That avoids the whole reprogram thing altogether.
