The 2007–2008 Fit uses the same key setup, so everything on this page applies to those years too. The full picture is on the Honda Fit key guide.

2008 Honda Fit: key facts

Key type: Remote-head key
Push-to-start: No
Transponder chip: Varies by trim — we confirm by VIN
Programming: OBD
All keys lost: We can originate new keys on site

Vendor catalogs genuinely split for these years: most list the Philips ID46 remote-head key (OUCG8D-380H-A), but several warn that some 2007-2008 Fits use the Megamos 8E chip instead ('H' stamped on the blade, HD113 blank), and transpondery.com lists 8E for this generation. The two systems are not interchangeable — we identify from the key stamp or a chip read before cutting.

Same key system as the 2007–2008 Fit

Honda kept the Fit's key system unchanged across 2007–2008, so everything about replacing a 2008 key — blanks, programming, and what happens if every key is lost — matches the rest of that run. The full year-by-year breakdown lives in our Honda Fit key guide.

What drives the price is the key type, whether you still have a working key, and where the car is parked. There's more on Honda programming in general on our Honda key page.
