Key Fob
Are all C5 key fobs the same in regards to years i.e. are they year dependent? I need to purchase a fob and was looking at ebay. I need a fob for an '03.
Also was an owners manual or CD provided?
Thanks

Owners manual came with all years (can be purchased through Gene Culley (GMPartshouse). Don't know about the CD.

I have bought a few on eBay for like 19.95 each new. Make sure it is for a 2001-2004 C5, As far as owners manual goes there was one with each car when sold new, Not one for the fob.

Replacement keys can also be bought on ebay and cut locally for 1/4 the dealer price. You just need to know the resistance.
There are posts on the forum for both translating measures resistance to key # and how to train your fob

In Portland I needed a spare key and fob so I called a key shop and told them I needed these for a 2001 vette and they said no problem. They took my key and found out which key I needed and promply cut one,then told me that they had used fobs and they would sell me both for $45.00 whiich I jumped on.They were also a AAA dealer,maybe that is where they got the fobs.Just a thought.
