How do I tell if my car has keyless entry?

Hi there!
I own an 1995 850 GLT wagon. What I can't figure out is did this thing come with keyless entry, and I didn't get the keyfobs when i bought it from a crappy dealer? And how would I ever be able to tell the difference? Anyone with any insight, please let me know!!!!!

I'm pretty sure all North American 850s had keyless entry. I'd get a remote off eBay (save money) and do the programming instructions (around here somewhere). If it doesn't work you can always sell the fob on eBay.

They all came with keyless entry. Check on the dash for an led that's for the alarm, but also serves as part of the keyless entry.

Where would this LED be? I don't think I have seen any LED's in my '94, also no FOBS when I bought it, curious about this.

led alarm/keyless is on top of dash in center. it is visible flashing(flashes every 2 secs or so when armed) from outside through windshield....probably as a deterrent more than anything.

The hole at the base of the windshield at the center? I was told that this is a temp sensor when I asked this same question a few months ago on this forum.

I've seen 850's that have a device there - mine has a square plastic hole with a plug in it, but no LED - it's blank.

I think I don't have keyless entry - anyone else have a way I can tell? Build sheet? I think I may have the original paperwork. Is there some type of computer I could look for?
