Default Wanted: 2 Button Switchblade remote

Anyone have one? I have the 3 button one, but since I have an early 98 I need the two button switchblade remote.

If anyone has one to sell or to trade for the 3 button, please let me know.

Thanks,
Matt

Default I have tried Ebay, without luck, and the 3 button will not work with my car

I have tried Ebay, havent found much luck in the US. Also, I don't know if it is possible to program the 3 button to work on my car... I have an early 98 model and everyone seems to say I need the 2 button.

Does anyone know if I can use the 3 button with my car, and if so, how?

Thanks

Default 3 button works just fine- it's off the a6

no power trunk functionality, but looks better imo.

i have 3 of them that work on my 97 a4. you just need to code them properly and make sure that your keyless entry in properly coded on your ecu. [easily changed w/ vag].

I have tried the programming instructions without the Vag, but that hasnt worked. I have a friend with a vag, if we program it with that the 3 button should work? Is it easy to program it with the vag?

By code them properly, do you mean program them?

Thanks

Default yes, vag to change the coding on the ecu so that your ecu is active

for the keyless entry and then program the remotes on the car.
