Default New Member Here With Some Questions

Hello, I just bought a new to me 2004 Honda Accord LX Coupe. I have a few questions about it. Did it come from the factory with a key fob? If so what is the part number of the key fob that I need to get? I just have a generic honda key with the chip in it. Thanks in advance.

Where are you?
In the USA it should have come with 2 keys having remote-lock buttons right on the keys. Also a valet key that doesn't work in trunk.

I have no idea what Honda does in other countries...

I am in NW Arkansas. The key says Honda but it looks like it glows in the dark. Has a green tint to it. This is the only key I have. I guess I need to buy the key with the fob on it and get it programmed.

That sounds like the thing to do about the key and a fob..

Check the key you have with the trunk and the trunk lock to ensure that it is not a valet key. Then locate the correct key chip needed and I would look on ebay for the key. I did that found the right key and then call me a sexist but had my daughter, good looking, take in the key to have it cloned at Honda service counter. They quoted me $10 to program the chip from the old key but my daughter got it done for no cost at all. Go figure.
