you have to click the "lock" button twice and honk the horn, then press and hold the 'start' button for 5 seconds.

It is an add-on. Like $80 I believe but don't quote me.

Buying a Key fob will only work if you have the AP3 RPO code. If you have AP8, a dealer installed package will need to be purchase to change your settings to a AP3 operating system. Kit is cheap, under $300 installed, comes with 2 fobs.
