For those of you who lost/broke a car alarm remote...?

So I broke my cars *aftermarket* alarm systems remote and have no idea where to begin with replacing the remote since the last owner was the one to get it installed.

For anyone who had a similar issue:

What did you do to replace it?

Can you recommend any websites/stores that may be able to replace my remote?

Please don't recommend the dealership. this is an aftermarket alarm system so they are no help.

    Use the customer service phones as they can probably guide you on how to figure out what you need.

    Good luck

    usually for aftermarket systems, you have to get a new one completely. if it were an OEM system, the dealership could just get a new remote and program it to your car's system, but aftermarket systems aren't like that (at least that i know of), so you need to take the current one out and install a new one.

    aftermarket alarms are pretty good, anyway. they cost about 1/3 the price of OEM alarms, and the ones i have last about 5-7 years before they break down on their own (wear-and-tear, not because i dropped them down the stairs or something like that, i'm very particular with all aspects of car care), just a little less than an OEM system.

    here in the Philippines aftermarket car alarm and central door locking systems are too cheap that we just replace them everytime they're broken. the usual life span of these alarms and locking system is about 2yrs only. but mine is already 5yrs old and still works perfectly.

    I have the same problem. The last owner had no idea where the remote was.
