anyone try out the GM flip key ? nevermind, even if you got the keyless entry to work the ignition key is the wrong pattern
they make them for vettes but it doesnt look like the ignition key is the same either. vettes use the same wireless remote, this vette one actually has you put the factory guts into the new remote

its on ebay, search for "chevy flip key". however like i said im not sure if it would work, it looks like it should tho once you get the key cut and disable the VATS system
they are like $40
on second thought im not sure if the key dimensions are the same.

At first I was going to say it won't work because the first pic is Pass Key III, but the vette pics posted are for the Pass Key II system that F-bodies have, so in get one of those remotes and it will work once reprogrammed.
Its actually really easy to reprogram the key fob. Pull the radio fuse, turn the key to the on position and back 3 times and hold down the lock and unlock buttons on the remote.

Yes, you can buy any GM keyfob technically and have the dealer reprogram it and it will work just fine.

i would ask if the key part itself would work in an fbody. the corvette key is a bit different, its double sided where as the fbody has a flat side. i would email them and ask if there is any way to get the key part to work with an fbody
