Yes and Yes, The odd ones that everyone will tell you can't get from holden, well you still can just be patient and ring around

[Hardstylin]

Yes, I ordered mine from Preston Motors in Dandenong, give them a call and see if they have any in stock.

Yes they are easily coded, take it to a Holden dealer and they'll do it for $50.

[Zuicider]

damn i better fiddle with my ebay listing, any ideas what they are worth new? i just remember a dude trying to get a hey remotes for a vq bcm and they told him they stopped making those

[hjtrbo]

Can the VT etc ones be coded like the Vp's etc or some other solution to get a VT style integrated key and remote??? I have always wondered...

[Zuicider]

no idea probably

[ScoHar]

the VT ones can't be programed on the calais version VP I now that for sure, and my VP key remote cost me $140NZD and got the guy to code it for me

[LightningVP]

When they say "remote" do they mean the immobilizer remote? cause my case is in 2 pieces

[vnv8driver]

Ive been told by holden that every model from vn onwards they keep a record from your vin number so you can get another immobilizer remote.

Also holden can programme a remote, or you can take it to a key cutter you normlly see in shopping centers and they can do it as well.

[levymetal]

if the insides are good you can just get the case, i got the 2 button case ordered in for me from a NSW store in Boyded. there were only 6 left (in australia) when i ordered mine... cost $40 including postage. rip off, but I needed it.

[STEALTHY™]

Key cutters can recut the override key, but they can't reprogram the remotes. Only holden dealers can do that.

In VP theres 2 remotes, single button, and 2 button. Single button ones are made my mongoose, and you can't get them anymore. Holden still have 2 button ones in stock, there $70 each.

You can however reprogram a remote if its already been programmed to another car. They told me you cant, yet i gave them 2 new remotes and a 2ndhand one that was programmed to someone elses car, and they gave me back the new one and the 2nd hand one for my car.

[LightningVP]

hmmm...may need to ask someone that is scrapping a car...

thats what i meant, if you already have a half dodgy remote a key cutter can reprogram a remote with your specific setting on it, the same way car theifs steal your remote signal when you press a button, the device (which is illegal unless your in the trade) captures the signal and stores it

Yeah i get you now. i worded it that way because my car didn't come with a remote, so i didn't have one to copy.

[Zuicider]

i just bought two one button remotes for 50 with postage, bloke only had four so *POW*

[centy]

pm me his details please.
I need a couple to.

BRAND NEW VP Commodore remote (SHELL ONLY) - eBay, Other Car Parts, Accessories, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 15-Nov-08 08:59:01 AEDST)
he has listed 4 more they are genuine too

[STEALTHY™]

Holden have the 2 buttons ones for $70. The shell is only really good if your buttons are damaged, although personally i'd just ditch it, and get a brand new one.

wheres the sensor for the remote as i think mine needs either adjusting or replacing, you have to stand right next to the car and press the button (beside drivers door) otherwise it wont work..... like its got a limited signal

im pretty sure it uses the radio antenna, which of course if its electric gonna be down when you come back to the car, with mine just guessed old technology bugger all range.

[vnv8driver]

hmm thats got me thinking becasue the previous owner put an aftermarket antenna into it!

And yep its electric, i cant see how it would be making a low signal range though since i can receive radio stations etc?? or could it be as simple as a wire going to the antenna may be faulty?

[LightningVP]

Glad I checked back into this thread...Just got one of those cases...

new price for VP security remotes is $93.50, i got mine through holden... who get them from Mongoose.... also if you're looking for the security code you don't have to pull the dash apart... go to a holden dealer and ask for a printout of you original security codes,

"you have to take your blue slip and a form of photo ID" (namely a drivers licence ... derrrr)

thats what i got told when i called the customer service desk in melbourne

[Zuicider]

haha so im bushed if i got the sercurties from another car

I already explained everything above. Dig for nothing!

The mongoose remotes (single button) are now obsolete, and even mongoose themselves cant get them made, I was led to believe i had that type of remote, when infact i had the 2 button holden one, of which holden still have some stock, and sell for $70, plus $50 or so for programming!
