Default Key phob.

My spare key phob does not have guts. Not sure how is was lost. The outer housing and buttons are all there. Can the inside be replaced?

I guess it could be, but probably just easier to find a replacement fob on the big auction site.

You can buy a FOB on ebay for the 03 for about $15 delivered. To program it, you would follow the instructions in the owner's manual.

You're kidding us and you are a senior member. if this is not a joke, then step away from the car, sell it................Houston we have a problem..

Okay for real. you opened up the key fob and found out it has no innards, common sense, either the seller scammed you, or it was vaporized, either way you have to order a new one, How?

1) go to dealer order one and pay big money.

2) Go to this link or one like it http://www.keyless-remotes.com/?gcli...FU2b7QodaiE00g order a replacement, take to dealer pay big bucks to program.

3) Go on BIG AUCTION SITE, aka ebay. Try and get a used one, then get it programmed.

A Vette is a nice car, lots of people have one, lots of people who could not afford one (not to say you could not) have brought one due to the low and low balled prices that a C5 and C6 can be had for. These cars are not for everyone. Just like the guy who won a Lamborghini and then crashed it a few hours after getting it home. Read, read your manual, look under the hood, LEARN. And you will have a great car, don't do these things and this car will hurt or even kill you due to ----------USER ERROR----------------

Day after day, I swear that I am going to stop doing all your searching for you, and I know I've told you how. Here's one more, I'm quitting after this.

65GGvert. Thanks for the help. I do try searching the forums before I ask questions. But usually I get pages of information not related to my question. It's much easier,faster,and to the point to ask the question again. I'm going to guess about everything on this sight is asked over and over again.
