Does it have to be copper wire ?

 

No mine is the standard square one and has no trunk release. I just wanted to make sure that I could upgrade to the one u have above ,with trunk release, even tho the FCC number is different...

 

If you have gold wire use that.

 

Dont understand you. But if your original remote has a trunk release button then you want the new remote to have it too. If it doesnt I'm sure you can get the 4 button remote and the trunk release just wouldnt function.

 

^^Sorry for being so vague, having issues uploading a pic on here. Mines is just a generic FOB w/o trunk release. The FCC code is also different. Looks like Ill be getting a good price on the FOB you recommend and will let you know how it turns out. Also, has anyone tried re-programming the remote? I found a site that gives instructions...

 

U were bidding against me on ebay. God darn it, I wanted that one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Lol, I didn't even bid since I didn't see PayPal as an option for payment plus he only had sold one other thing. That's funny tho..lol

 

Yeah I talked to him and he did say something about no paypal. Maybe it was a good thing. My last remote I got for $13 shipped so $40+ feels high to me.

I want to change my second remote.

 

You dont program the remote. You take the internals of your current remote and place it in the new remote. The new remote is nothing but a shell. So its still the same "Remote" program just a different case. You dont even need to case to operate the remote. Just have a battery and the board and thats a keyfob.

 

Yea I read that, great DIY. Looks pretty straight fwd. I was just wondering if anyone tried it that way. Now if I can just find FOB...

 

There's like 10 of them on ebay; just to high in price for me $30-40+

^Exactly...

 

when you guys solder the copper wire did you guys solder the entire wire to the board?
