is the remote you lost for an oem cdl kit/alarm?
for some cars you can program other oem remotes to match your system.

You r right ... my 97 sedan dint come with remote central locking.
Only with central locking from the driverside door.

Then i got it installed a "Black Widow" remote control system.

the civic did come with an option for remote central locking. correct me if im wrong but i heard its built into the stock radio or something?

Does your remote have HONDA or the Honda emblem on it? If not, i'd suspect it's an aftermarket alarm/central locking remote kit.

If it's not a genuine honda item then your best bet is to find the brand of the kit (either on the remote or look under your dash for the central locking/alarm control unit and) then try to get in contact with the manufacturer of the kit or a supplier and see if they can order in a replacement remote.

That's what I did with mine, albeit $150 later...

hrmm maybe you guys are right...coz i have never seen a remote for this car, i just assumed it had a remote because it had central locking, so i maybe wrong

anyway thanks for all the help, i really wanted that remote but ohh well:(
