How many miles are on the car? If it is under a 160,000 miles it probably isn't the starter, could be just a weak battery or poor (corrosion) at the battery terminals. You fail to explain the problem adequetly, Does the starter turn over the engine everytime but it seems the car takes several attempts to crank it? If thats the case it is most likely the rotor under your distributor cap. Cheap fix,,,it could be a number of things. An experienced mechanic at the Honda place could probably diagnose it while you watch. I haven't ever had a key switch in any of mine go bad, but it sounds like yours could be worn. It is hard to diagnose the problem over the phone or internet, it would be easy if I could put my hands and eyes on it. Don't replace the starter without checking battery with load tester and check it for clean tight connections first, you can't tell by looking at it, you have to clean them to be sure. If the distibutor cap and rotor have not been replaced in 200,000 miles its time to replace them as preventative maint.
