Okay when i bought my 98 grand prix 3.8l i recieved four of the same key that i use only for the ignition. they do not work for the trunk i was wondering is there a seprate key for the trunk i need to have made or does the ignition key always work and there for mine must be broken. i hate having to use the button in the glove compartment its annoying sometimes.
 


if you can spend the $135 and get the keyfob from the dealer, thats what i did, mine didnt come with a fob and i cant live without a remote button, im just too lazy
 
You can get Keyfobs for cheap on ebay or from moradpartscompany.com.

Actually, I have a spare one for my 2002 GTP, lemme know if you want to try that route.
 
I have had to program two keyfobs for my 98 gtp......I bought new OEM key fobs on ebay(about $25 each shipped.) You have to program each one......it is about six or seven steps. It literally takes about two or three minutes for the entire process. You have to pull a specific fuse and go through a couple of different steps........not to bad. I would fully recommend it. When I bought mine it did not come with a trunk key release(it was shaved and I see the metal plate that was welded in on the inside of the trunk) so I did not have a choice.

Hey! Do we have a writup anywhere on what the process is to reprogram those keyfobs??? I got one with my 98GTP but its not working, even after a new batt. Thanks!
 
I dont know if it is on here or not..........PM me if you need it and I can do a write up on here for it if needed.
 
there is another way to do it with out having to pull fuses. but i cant remeber it off the top of my head right now. i will try and find it and get back to you with it
