99 Solara Keyless Entry System

[evanderhey]

I recently purchased a 99 Camry Solara with a TDS Theft Deterrent System. The car did not come with the keyless remote. It seems that this system is install by the Southeast Toyota Distributors. Does anyone know where I can purchase a replacement remote? Does this system work well? I can't seem to find much on the subject. I found documentation in the glove box for the system and the remote is elbow shape with three buttons - black, red, and green.

If your car has the antitheft system, then you can simply buy a key fob(the remote part) off ebay and program it for your car. The dealer can do the same thing but will charge a lot more.

The documentation doesn't mention with fob to use. Is there an online source for this information?

I would make sure its not the gulf coast system first, cuz if it is your gonna need a gulf coast key remote, with the remote built into the key
