i just bought a 98 318ti. it has power doors/windows, but the person who sold me the car had only 1 key and it doesnt have any buttons or remote for keyless entry.

i took my car to the bmw dealer bc it says its prewired for BMW security system and i wasnt sure if it already had it or if the guy i bought the car from just lost the keyless entry remote or something.

i read here that it should just be a white box under the hood, which the dealer checked and didnt find.

so i want a keyless entry system, i dont care much for the security system but i dont think i can get 1 without the other. i really want a new key with the 2 or 3 buttons on the key itself, how can i get this?
