Honda Accord Dealer Problem

Lost the only set of keys to my 98 Honda Accord LX. Honda Dealers is going to charge me $160 to have key made. Can't afford that! Could I just replace the ignition switch? Would that work?

Replacing the switch is not going to work. Replacing the lock is what you need to do. Maybe you can try the salvage yard for a used unit but if the key is with immobilizer, you need to have it reprogrammed.
