Has anyone had to buy a new key fob from either a third party "automotive locksmith" or from Honda, for their Mk 4 Jazz?
We seem to have lost one of our two keys - the "main" one with the leather loop on it, though as far as I can see the fobs are the same. It does the usual remote locking and arming and unlocking and has to be in the car in order to start it. It has the removable key blade that can also be used to open and lock the car.
I have been quoted "around £500" by the local dealer and £300 inc. VAT by an automotive locksmith for a replacement. I am wondering if the key provided by the automotive locksmith would have all the same functionality as the original or if there are any risks in going down that route.
