After my 1993 SSE got destroyed, I had its remote entry key fob lying around. Although my '95 SSE came with a remote, I didn't want the old one to go to waste.
I asked Google for directions on programming my new car for the old fob, but the closest I could find was for 1996 Bonnies. I assumed that the computer in the '95 was similar enough, so I set to work. Here is the procedure:
(As usual, I don't guarantee the accuracy of these instructions. If you screw something up, it'* your own fault. Don't do this procedure if you don't know what you're doing.)
That'* it!

- Turn the ignition off
- Connect a jumper wire between pins 4 & 8 on the Data Link Connector (see photo below)
- When the jumper connection is made, the power locks should respond by locking and unlocking
- Simultaneously press both the lock and unlock buttons on the first transmitter
- Hold for a second, and then release
- If the programming was successful, the locks should lock and then unlock.
- Repeat steps 4-6 for additional transmitters
- Disconnect the jumper wire
- Verify the operation of each transmitter
That'* it!

Yeah he'* showing an OBD-II connector, us pre-95 guys have the OBD-I rectangle connector.
On my car, you have to hold down a button that'* dangling from the remote locks module while you do something funky with the remotes. or something.
