It's my understanding that Twilight Sentinetal was not available on the '99 FRC. Do you have RPO T82 on your sticker?

Take a look at this......

http://www.corvetteactioncenter.com/...99/99prod.html

As far as the easy entry - I agree it looks like you would need to have RPO AAB for that to work, and that wasn't offered on the '99 FRC either.

Maybe someone else with a '99 FRC can explain what they see....

Just taking a SWAG at it...didn't the FRC (prior to the Z06) have the lowest entry price point of the C5 models? To accomplish that, maybe they left out some hardware and software that was required for certain options. Like I said, it's just my wild a** guess at it.

I checked my RPO and i don't have the T82 on the my sticker. But as far as easy entry i know that it won't work unless i have the memory package. But my concern is about the auto lock and auto unlock is that an option to or it didn't come on the '99 FRC?

I can't answer your question - I have a '98 convertible with RPO AAB. I'm sure there's someone here that has a '99 FRC that can tell you if they have the auto lock/unlock feature on their car. My SWAG is that it relates to the Memory option, too.

My '99 FRC does not have the auto lock/unlock options either. I don't know if it has something to do with being an FRC (limited options) or the manual transmission.

Ok i c, so my guess is none of the FRC came with auto lock/unlock option. But mine has the easy entry and it's really useless
