If you have a Civic Si, a push-to-start vehicle, or no working keys, plan to consult a locksmith or source a compatible OEM solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Do these remotes require programming?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes.
