Keyless entry for my 2002 Impala

OK some know that I just bought a 2002 Impala. I did not get any key-less entry remotes. I have found some on E-bay for a good price but it says I need to check with a dealer to see if my particular vehicle is equipped to use key-less. Is there anyway I can find out without having to call a dealer. I am impatient and if I could find out tonight, I would order them.

Thanks!!!

 
chances are even if it does have keyless entry... ur still gonna have to talk to the dealer about programing it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

so call go in now and kill both the birds with one stone

The one Im looking at says it has the instructions on how to program it. Think its a sham??

 
um you can add a aftermarket keyless to your car. if you have power locks. the wires should be easy to get too. and will probably be cheeper if you go after market. then trying to go througt the dealer.

 
Thanks to everyones advise. My wife is going to call the dealer in the morning. If they say it does have key-less, I may try the the E-bay thing. I think its worth the $25.00 to at least try.

 
" Important: If the vehicle has more than one keyless entry transmitter, ensure that all of the keyless entry transmitters are programmed during the same programming sequence. Any keyless entry transmitters that are not programmed will not work.

-Open the trunk.

-Pull aside the right side compartment trim in order to gain access. You will see a small black plug on the end of a black and white wire, taped to the main wiring harness with electrical tape, about half way between the base of the antenna and the rear of the car.

-Use a jumper wire with alligator clips in order to ground the RKE programming connector (make sure you have a good connection). The door locks will lock and unlock. This action indicates that the RCDLR has entered the keyless entry transmitter programming mode.

-While the programming connector is still grounded, program each of the keyless entry transmitters, one at a time. Press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously on the first keyless entry transmitter. Hold the buttons for 10 seconds. The door locks will lock and unlock. This action indicates that the keyless entry transmitter has been programmed.

-Repeat Step 4 for the remaining keyless entry transmitters. You may program as many as 4 transmitters.

Remove the jumper wire from the RKE programming connector terminal.

Verify that the keyless entry transmitters operate correctly."

that's it for a 95-99 monte carlo, idk if it's the same. Probably not?
