kdm212 -> camaro remote programming. help please! (4/11/2008 12:48:57 PM)

first of all let me take the time to say im glad i found the forum. i have a proud owner of 3 camaro's and a firebird.

currently im driving a 1997 camaro rs. the guy i bought it off of had no remotes that came with the car. i did a small google search and found the way to test and see if your car came equipped with keyless entry. well in fact mine did. when i bought the car he also gave me a brand new alarm system still sealed in the box that he never installed. so after looking at the remotes that come with the aftermarket alarm i noticed they were practically identical to normal stock gm remotes of 97. the only difference is the color, oem-black, aftermarket-grey. with all of this being said do i really need to go through the paces of installing a whole new system or can i simply use the new remotes? if i can use the remotes how do i program them? thanks for your time!

i hate to be the one to tell you this, but unfortantely there is no way to reprogram the after market remotes to work with the old key less entry. you would have to do one of two things.

1. wire the new alarm module in on top of the orginal keyless entry, or

2. remove the old keyless entry and install the new alarm system wiring it into the door locks to get the keyless entry to work

OR i pony up the 25-35 each plus shipping and get the remotes off ebay. sucks that i got this alarm system already built in the carand i cant use other remotes on it. im not gonna install a aftermarket over the stock.
