View CartCustomers often ask if it makes sense for them to buy a transmitter that was previously owned by another vehicle owner. The simple answer is that this often makes lots of sense. Pre-owned transmitters generally are much less expensive than a new remote. And, for a used vehicle that you may not be driving for another 5 or 6 years, why invest in an expensive brand-new key fob. If a pre-owned part has not been cracked or broken, and there are no holes in the button pad, then the circuit board inside probably has been protected fairly well from dirt, moisture and other things that cause damage.
Remotes Unlimited sells more than 1,000 different pre-owned transmitters for many factory keyless entry and add-on alarm/remote start systems. Each part is inspected, tested and given a new battery prior to sale. If the part contains a locking transponder, you can be assured that the transponder has been unlocked prior to sale. And, much of our pre-owned inventory is in excellent condition. Also, we have pre-owned transmitters for many remotes that are no longer available new from the original manufacturer. If we have new remotes in inventory, that is generally what you will see offered on our website. So, if you need a part listed, but would prefer to buy a less expensive pre-owned transmitter, please call us for assistance.
