Good deal on new spare remotes for 2008 Acura RL
 

I was looking for a spare remote for my 08 RL and visited many hardware stores in Chicago suburbs to cut chip key for which I bought a blank on internet. No stores allows outside blank cutting.
I did not want to go to dealer to buy or program the remote or key

I found Ace hardware who have a tie up with Duracell . They sell a brand new remote and spare key with a chip and offer reprogramming all remotes for about $250.

I ordered it but it is on back order and may take a month to get it.

When received, I will inform how it goes.

Surprisingly Duracell website does not show 08 RL Remote available online but only through this hardware stores. Website shows up to 04 RL.

Bump for update. Which Ace did you do to? Curious because I'm in the northern suburbs too, and know at least one other member here as well.

I don't know about RL remotes specifically, but I know Duracell remotes used to be available at Palatine.
