Default 1998 Honda Accord Key Flip Switchblade...

Hi guys, I'm new here so I hope i'm posting this in the correct section.

I was looking around for a key flip switchblade for a 1998 Honda Accord EX and the only one I can find is this...

https://ikeyless.com/vehicles/Honda/.../1998/1000886/

I don't like the look of that one and it's pricey.

Anyone else know where I can find any others for my car??

Thanks.

When I bought my Accord last summer it only came with two standard keys and no remotes. Prior to buying a remote I did quite a bit of research, and oddly enough, I ended up buying from iKeyLess.

I told you the above to tell you this; while you may find a switchblade Key/Remote combo that has better looks to your eye, I rather doubt you're going to find one at a lower price, and if you do it will only amount to a couple of bucks.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Thanks for the reply. Disappointing that there isn't more options then that one. How does that remote work for you? Seems bulky on the picture.

I bought just the remote fob (only something like $70) and not the switchblade key/remote combo, that said, my remote looks like it was made by the same folks that make the switchblade, and so far at least, it works flawlessly.
