Key fob/ Alarm/ remote starter question

I recently lost my OEM keyfob with the unlock and lock buttons. It just fell off of my key chain and now I'm stuck using my key every time. How can I go about replacing it? There was a remote starter tied into it as well. You would just hold down both buttons to start it. Can I just replace the remote or do I have to replace the sensor in the car as well?

The OEM Keyfob only has one button. What did your two button one look like?

really??? the two SVX's that I have had both had the same keypad. So, apparently it isn't OEM. My question still remains though. Can I buy a new one or do I have to get a whole new keypad and receiver

The OEM alarm also did not have any remote start capabilities. You can likely order a replacement remote for an aftermarket system, but you'd have to know the make and model of the unit.

I don't know if or how you would get the 2nd button to do remote start, but the replacement 2-button I got from www.keylessride.com is very awesome.

Uhh

I think you need to find out what alarm system/remote start/ keyless unlock you have then you can order new remotes from whoever sells that system,

You could browse through here to see if anything looks familiar. But like the others said, the remote start is not OEM and you really should find the system to make sure you order the right remote.
