Key fob/Immobilizer Question

I recently brough a new car and the car came with one Immobilizer (I think that's what it is called) and so I'm wondering if there's any possible way for me to copy one of them just in case because I can't start my car without it.

Picture of the immobilizer is below.

Thanks!

For most immobilizers like this you'll need to find the programming code for these. Should be on a card with a 4-5 digit code one it. Without it, you're pretty much out of luck for programming a new one or even turning it off in the case that you lose your last one.

Would suggest replacing the system if you don't have the card. Last thing you want is to be stuck somewhere far, then have to tow it, wait until morning, etc.

Remove that junk and have a proper alarm/immobilizer put in.

Do you know whereabouts I can get that removed? Or if it's easy for me to do it myself? But yeah I don't have a card.

Can bring it to any of the sponsors. You can't just unplug it, otherwise you won't be able to start the vehicle.

Omg that's a Clifford Imobilizer I've removed so many of tones because the pin you push it in becomes worn out making it impossible to start the car. I suggest you remove that right away before your stranded somewhere.

That is a Clifford and was the best system anywhere. A true normally open immobilizer that was much more secure than anything else on the market. It's probably more then 15 years old.
