GM ordering part numbers for the correct items for F-bodies:
remote control door lock transmitter (keyfob) (93-95 Firebird) = 12522339
remote control door lock transmitter (keyfob) (94-95 Camaro) = 15725423 (formerly 10239647)
remote control door lock transmitter (keyfob) (without antitheft) (96-98) = 16245103
remote control door lock transmitter (keyfob) (with antitheft - RPO UA6) (96-02) = 16245100
Providing you've got one of these, follow these instructions...
Each remote keyless entry transmitter is coded to prevent another transmitter from unlocking your vehicle. If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can be purchased through your dealer. Remember to bring any remaining transmitters with you when you go to your dealer. When the dealer matches the replacement transmitter to your vehicle, any remaining transmitters must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded the new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock your vehicle. Each vehicle can have a maximum of four transmitters matched to it. Have each transmitter you intend to match ready for the next steps. To match transmitters to your vehicle, do the following:
1. Turn the ignition key to RUN, then to OFF. This will disarm the content theft-deterrent/alarm system (if equipped).
2. Remove the RADIO fuse. This fuse is located in the main fuse block which is located on the left side of your instrument panel. See “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in the Index.
3. Turn the ignition key from OFF to RUN three times quickly (within five seconds). The vehicle will respond by locking the doors, unlocking the driver’s door and releasing the hatch. Your transmitter is now ready to match the vehicle. Leave the ignition in RUN.
4. Press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the first transmitter for 15 seconds. The vehicle will respond as in Step 3.
5. Repeat Step 4 for the remaining transmitters.
6. When you have finished matching all of your transmitters, replace the RADIO fuse.
7. Check that all transmitters work by pressing the buttons. If the transmitters don’t work, or if you’d rather not match the transmitters yourself, see your dealer.

Where do people recommend me purchasing one of these from? I found a few websites...
This one is $54
This one is $40
Or should I purchase one through my dealer for 70$
What do you guys think?
