I think so but you have to to take it to a stealership so they can charge you 120 bucks to reprogram

Default You need to verify that the part number on the inside is the same as your key, or
it won't work...

Default I'm using a dealer (Clair) provided "P" remote with an "E" original remote. No issues.
Again, I suspect this is more a post-2000 restriction when the immobilizer coding comes into play. Thus, I can confirm on a 2000 anyway, remotes with the E and P part number suffix are interchangable. I suspect the F ones are too, but can't confirm for sure.

Yes as long as the FCC ID matches, but if you car has an immobilizer you have to go to the dealer
