But after they are finished programming the remote start button does not start the car, instead it pops the trunk lol. All other buttons worked but I end up with 2 trunk releases lol. Anyhow I was refunded for them and kept them as spares but there are definitely some unknown differences in fobs out there. I asked you to post source to help the OP out. Also, can you post what make, model Camaro you have and serial # you ordered? Obviously 12-13 years later people can't read those fob numbers anymore.

I understand, even with the proper alleged serial number, purchasing from outside sources can be a crap shoot. nothing is certain or guaranteed....except as they say, death, taxes and now we can add gas prices will going up daily.


as to my serial number, turns out mine wasn't as common a number for a 2012 so providing mine would not guarantee once again, you get the right one. there are different serial numbers even for the same year, at least, that is what I was told. mine wasn't easy to read but after cleaning it real good, I could make it out. hope that helps some anyway.
