    Question Switchblade Key

    I have a VW switchblade key in my house from a car that we dont have anymore, and I was wondering... Is there any way that i can put the key to my 3 gee into the key fob?

    I think you would have better luck putting a honda key in a Swiss army knife.

    Dubbers switch keys in those all the time. It might be a little different with a Honda key, but the principle should be the same: DIY

    Re: Switchblade Key

    just buy another honda switch blade key, AND a key blank for your car... get the keyblack cut for your car and slice it up and replace the key on the switchblade just like the how to.. its the only way to do it
