Default Aftermarket key fob

Hi all I have a 1997 3.2. I need a new key fob and as far as I can tell it’s a 433mHz one I need. Now can you use any 433mhz key fob ?

Saab around the same year may be an option

There are parts on E - bay to repair your original

There was some mixing around of the rear glass in whole car production and it's already manufactured antenna type , this is a TSB

I have an extra 433 I picked up at a salvage yard , but my system is a 315

FYI, I have changed the battery on these in the past, and tried to fix the "clicker" mechanism in the fob in the past with limited success. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

They are often found on e-bay, I recently bought one and then successfully programmed it to my car!

Try a locksmith, several I've been into lately have a FOB replacement service, maybe worth trying. If you have a funtional FOB take it with you.

Cheers,
Jeff.
