Default PKE Remotes....

Just in case anyone ever wondered, here are the internals of PKE remotes, the one of the left is a Conv, the left a Coupe. They are exactly the same, minus the top cover of the remote.






If someone wanted to make a killin, they could start making the top covers of the remotes, because thats all that hold the pke together, and its the part that holds the PKE to your key ring.

Interesting...I have 2 for my "95 ragtop...both the "coupe" style...so likely they were replacements...orig owner was Chevy Service Mgr.


Could use a new top since I sat on keys and broke one...

Seal the covers up with a little RTV and they make decent fishing 'bobbers'.
