Default 1992 Civic anti-theft device help

Hello, My name is Brice L. and I have a 1992 Honda Civic. I awoke this morning to find my car missing, I immediately called the cops and they came out within the hour. 30 minutes after the cop left, he called me telling me that he had found my car, what a relief! or so I thought, you see, I had one of those ignition immobilizers in the car and now it is missing. This car is just a junker get to work car, but had a removable face radio in it (this is apparantly what the thieves wanted as it's now missing).

I have continually had a problem with removing the car key from the ignition, so I would remove the "ignition kill anti theft thingy" and the face plate to the radio and stick them inside one of my work boots in the trunk (I know, what an idiot), thinking that the most they would get was my radio, which to be honest, I really didn't care as long as my car was there to go to work. Long story short, they emptied my trunk of all my work gear, including my work boots that contained this anti theft key thingy.

The cops found my car down the hill from where I lived, the thieves had broke in and just rolled it down the hill where they removed the radio and my belongings, this is how it was found so quick, the cop was getting ready to give me a ticket for parking on the wrong side of the road! He ran the plates and then realized it was my car! 30 minutes, this guy was good ... lol

Since this is a 1992, and this device is 18 years old, I have no idea what, where, or who makes this (if they are even still in business) and am stuck without being able to start my car.

If anyone can help me figure out what the heck this device is, or how to circumvent it, please PM me. I can take pictures of the "female" side of it and found some numbers on part of the wiring, it says "LEX ST 221 LR38227 0" and is on some of the heat shrink on the wiring directly behind the device.

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help, I understand asking how to "steal" my own car is a bit akward, and may even be frowned on. I can however take pictures of 1. the mess of my car, 2. the stolen radio, 3. a picture of myself, along with my License, and 4. a picture of the license plate along with my registration, just to prove this is MY car, and I'm not asking how to "steal" cars, I just want to STEAL my car back!

Again, thanks for any help you guys can give me.

If anyone can help me get my car running, I would also be willing to send you a $50 gift card to the restaurant of your choice, as a thank you. Dinner on me

Most of the aftermarket ones I've seen go for the starter circut. Try key on, jump 12v to the starter solenoid. At least that will get it back up the hill.
