You have to install an auto-start unit first.

Unless you are asking for a step-by-step walkthrough of installing a unit,
no, not really.

You want to add a remote control starter to your car, you will have to buy
an appropriate unit and install it. There are many makes and models.

No, I'm not looking for a step by step. More precisely, I am interested in
adding OEM equipment. So if it were a matter of buying the radio, or
enabling a feature in the Honda computer or buying a Honda key with a
remote start button.... That's what I was really looking for.

Thanks

remote start is not a great idea. engine wear is greatest when the
engine is cold. remote start ensures the engine reaches operating
temperature as slowly as possible - it's much better to start and drive
away immediately as it minimizes the time at which the engine is
operating cold. habitual use of remote start also increases the rate at
which engine oil contaminates - for the same reason.

if you're interested in remote start for climatic reasons, you're better
off with a block heater and synthetic oil.

oh, and remote start also requires you leave a key near the ignition
sensor so the security chip can disarm the computer lock.

I know of no OEM unit to do this. That's why I say there are many makes and
models. This is an aftermarket device.

This part hasn't been true in a long time (at least when dealing with a
decent brand and reputable shop). The better brands have add-on modules
that memorize your key's signature and re-broadcast it when it receives a
proper signal from the starter's main module. It lies dormant otherwise.
