I don't have the overhead console, I just have this little black dome. Looks like it could be a garage door opener or something, but I can't figure it out. Anyone? I can get a pic, lol.

They're only for the new Jeeps on Ebay, and how would I program a new remote? I don't have any.

For the Jeep fob you must go to Jeep to program the remote.

Ebay has the older ones it you watch for them.

You can program it yourself. The fob comes with instructions. Simply a sequence of key turns and button pushes. I don't remember the sequence off the top of my head. I had no trouble at all with my 93.
