Hi all, I have a question, if some of you can help me out, that'd be great!

I have a prelude 97 that comes with the immobilizer system. Problem is I only have 2 master programed keys and lost the red key to duplicate any more. So if I want to install alarm with remote start, I would have to buy transponder and leave one of the keys inside the transponder. So my question is if I duplicate an aftermarket key without it being programmed, will it start the car manually when you use the aftermarket key in the keyhole even with the transponder installed? Or is the transponder (with master key inside) only works for remote starting, and for manual starting, you'd still need the master programmed key to start the car? I'm very confused on that part. Please help me out. Thanks.

I believe OMEGA makes a NO KEY REQUIRED ByPass

# IB-PKH1, but you do need Key to program

A Honda dealed can duplicate a key for you if you have a programed key, the red key is used for overall programming if you loose the 2 black keys. No a after market key that is not programed will not start the car. The cost if the key at the dealer is about $35 dollars and they will program the key at the parts counter.

Thanks for your help guys.

So installing an alarm with a transponder containing an OEM master key inside and then using an AFTERMARKET key with no program will or will not start the car manually when you insert the aftermarket key into the keyhole? That's still unclear to me, reason I ask if because I don't have the red key to make any more keys, only two black ones and one aftermarket with no program.
