Just go to Mister Minit and get one from him - they sell them cut and programmed for under $100. They must be programmed!. Also most locksmiths now carry all car remotes and are much cheaper than going to Holden.

Thanks for your replies guys but it's not answering my question on the 2 button remote pads. I just need to know if I get a 2 button remote will it function with both buttons or just one or not function at all. I will be looking at getting new remotes no second hand.

i used to work a a holden dealership and yess the two button will replace the one button remote, it will have to be programmed to bcm to work, i cant remember if both buttons become active or not, but yes the will work on your car.

Holden stopped making the 1 button remotes, they only have the 2 button one now,, but Yes it will work fine, the other button will do nothing unless your car is fitted with remote boot release

That's a 3 button remote the 2 button remote is (lock | unlock)

Both buttons will not work, if your current remote only has 1 button then only 1 button will work,
Similar situation at work we had a customer come in with a vs an we only had the 3 button remotes left so we used one of them an the lock an unlock worked but the boot did not because the bcm did not support,,
