thats the one i have. i love it, works great, if you have a car with keyless. make sure your car has keyless entry before you buy it. anything from somewhere in 94 on, including slicktops, came with factory keyless.

the remote will release your hatch. i have found this to be infinately useful, as i hate having to open the door and pull the lever, or turn the key, if all i want to do is get in the hatch.

you'll pay more for a used Nissan fob than for this brand new. i searched for quite a while, and this seemed to be the best route. it works just fine.

hey man im selling my 300 and when i first joined this forum someone on here was kind enough to send me a keyless remote for free, so now its time for me to make an act of kindness so if you want the remote ill sell it to you for 80 bucks hahaha jk ill give it to you free of charge and entropy should know the programming instruction for it since he helped me with mine. its an infinity remote but its the same as the nissan ones and works just fine i used it for like 6 months. so my email is ryantwo40@hotmail.com shoot me your address and ill send it out. pooh i didnt realize this was an old post so if anyone wants it let me know

Well I ended up just getting the keyless ride remote and couldnt be happier. Extremely fast shipping and is MUCH smaller in person, wich is cool. I had a few problems programming it, but it was probably human error, it works GREAT. only button that doesnt work is the panic button, but whos gonna panic driving a Z?

that panic button will actually turn the dome light on and off.

any stereo place should be able to install a keyless system. price depends on how fancy you want.
