    I have a 2003 Honda Accord and only one one key for it. It is the older shape so like a 2002 model.

    The is a an older looking type key and I have a separate keyfob for locking and unlocking. Is this key still coded?

    Could I just get one cut at a local locksmith? The main thing I want a spare for is to access the vehicle.

    I tend to start the car in the morning to let it heat up and I don't want the car to automatically lock itself. It has happened before to me on another car. :D

    If you just need the key for opening the car door, try your
    local key cutter, some hardware shops have them.
    Think price wise about €15, the last time i got one cut.

    Car will only auto lock if a door hasn't been opened within 30 seconds of unlocking.

    Or if the button on your keyfob that locks the car door is a little dodgy.
    Or if it is a French car and decides for no reason to lock itself.

    LOL!

    Re the button on the keyfob. 2nd hand honda fobs on ebay for under £30. Can be programmed at home in about 20 seconds, no tools necessary.

    Speaking of tools, I need to get that mash tun finished :)
