Lost my keys ordered a new transmitter. Trying to reprogram with 0 luck. Notice its a convertible key. I have a coupe. Is the transmitter compatiable?

I asked this same question a couple weeks ago and had zero bites.
So if you buy an auto Vert fob, it can't be programmed to work on any other C7. It can't be programmed to, say a manual Coupe, and the unused buttons can be ignored?

Lisa,
It is quite a challenge to answer the questions in here and I figure that I'd draw a line. If the person doesn't have the correct part number in hand, I flat give up trying to help them program it. If they have the correct part, then the instructions can be worked and might help.

Not so much what has been done, but what may be done. Oh,well. I think I am arguably one of the other most knowledgeable posters on how it works in the real world.
thanks.

A coupe fob with remote start can be programed for a M7 Vert with the remote start button being non-functional. Will not lower Vert top using remote, but will open and start the car. I have an extra auto coupe fob and willing to trade for a manual vert fob. The dealer I bought the car (used) from provided the wrong fobs and refused to provide the correct ones. I bought one correct fob and kept the other for a spare. PM if interested in trade.

Question 1: Do you have the correct part number on your FOB. Yes, we can help. No, get it and get back to us!

Hopefully someone will want to trade (not me, because I have an auto Vert, so I need all buttons present and usable). Good luck!
