    Found a modern day key? Give it to the dealer??

    I found a Honda New fangled key magnetic or electrical fancy cut? Should I just drop it off to the dealer assuming they have a way of tracing the owner? these keys cost upward of 300 bucks to replace.
    thanks for looking

    If it were me i would run an ad in a lost and found first. The dealership may get it and just sit on it cause they want the person to come in and spend the money for a new one.

    Yes I Agree.

    it isn't to the dealers advantage to Look for the owner.

    Even though it was probably replaced the same day
    unless they had spares


    Of course if you get a bite on the add

    You would want to make sure the person claiming it
    can open their door with it.

    there are probably a few car thieves who could use it.

    Could you take it to your nearest Police Station, they hold it their for about 3 months and if it's not claimed you can have it...........Well that's what they do with reported lost property here in the UK

    Rev. Bike. No you probably wouldn't have use for a specific key. Due to the fact that it's a particularly expensive key, maybe the owner has reprted its loss to the police. Of course I am not familiar with how you deal with reported lost property in the U.S. I guess it all depends on the honesty of the people who find these things. But in any case I think you are taking all the right steps to return it to its rightful owner so congratulations

    No that is not my avator, unfortunately I am not that pretty. I will try and post my picture, I am just waiting for someone to give me a digi camera for a Birthday or Christmas present. LOL. Oh! just remembered I do have a picture, but am not sure how I post it to this site. I guess someone will tell me how.
