    Hey guys/gals

    I bought my girlfriend a Pro-Start remote start system for christmas, and have heard conflicting thoughts about whether or not I need a Bypass Module or not.

    Its going on a 97 GrandPrix GT 4 door.

    If the key has a chip you will for sure need a bypass.

    Pretty sure there is no chip, externally at least. Looks like these blanks
