Hitachi tv remote control

Hitachi crt tv and lost the remote for it,are hitachi remotes bespoke for the model or generic.
Special need son is causing upset over the problem.
He does not like universal remotes and is saying it will cost £40 to replace,.
I am not sure of the model as he is 180 miles away but can find out if it is necessary.
No money for this, replacement prices appear to vary greatly, hope some one can help.

    Just recently had to buy a replacement for my sons tv, only cost £12. Dont have the website address on this pc but will dig it out when i get home.

    Failing this, try looking on the Freecycle website, it may be that someone has a similar/same make of tv, all you'd have to do is go pick it up! :)
