Keyless remote

[flytheclassics]

I own a 1999 Grand Prix GTP. I purchased it used and it came without a keyless remote. It does seem to be load with all the options offered when new.

I would like to purchase a remote on Ebay, but don't know how to select the correct model?

Can anyone give me some advice?

Thanks!

I just bought a remote keyless entry transmitter off of eBay for my 99 Grand Prix GT. After talking to GM they told me the number on the back of the remote transmitter that you buy has to match the one designed for your receiver module. The GM/LEAR number they gave me for my 99 (which is probably the same number you would need) is 10246215. Here's what you get when searched on eBay.

Give me the last 8 digits of your vin, and I can tell you what transmitter you need.

The last 8 digets of the VIN is XF247403. I appreciate any help you can give me.

According to your vin #, your car didn't come with remote entry, which is odd considering you have heads up display, climate control, sunroof, etc...

Yes, that is odd. It seems to have almost everything else. Is it a big deal to have one installed? If practical, what would you suggest?
