no, you fix the ring and then go to the dealer and have them program everything. you will be towing your car.

thanks Jteske88 i just ordered one its supposed to be here saturday, and i have an 04 gt

[jteske88]

yeah i thought i was gonna break mine when i change out my ignition switch. Im still wondering how you broke it though?

[anarchy]

i was putting in the new double din radio JVC KW-XS68 and i needed a switched power wire so i was tapping into the brown wire from the ignition. so i had to take the screws out of the ignition and turn it and i ended up pushing on it and it broke
i felt like a rah-tard cuz it took a full day just to get the switch out, i didn't know i needed the key in it.

lol nice be carful next time

[anarchy]

oh trust me i will, it sucks not driving the car. :'(

Is it possible to get that "starting disable due to theft system" if your key and car are just really stupid cold? It came on today for me and I didn't break anything, no remote start, only thing I can think of is someone messed with my car while I was at work or because everythings ungodly cold it's on the fritz.
