Looking to get a replacement key fob. All the ebay listings have an FCC ID number. I do not have the original. Can anyone help me figure this out?Thanks,P

As long as its for your listed model it should work. I toyota one would probably work too. But again, this I'm not 100% sure on.

All went well and exactly as the instructions said.

You can get either your 2005 Vibe's remote (as listed on ebay) or a 2005-7 Toyota Matrix remote.With the Matrix remote, you get a panic button on the back that works on the Vibe, but it has a mini Toyota logo. The Vibe remotes don't have a panic button or a logo.I have and use both: the FCC ID's are identical - both made by TRW - GQ43VT14TIt's hard to read, but it's the same remote for 2007's, djkeev: GQ looks like CO - I had to check because I couldn't see it that well

I almost put in a disclaimer! Hey, I'm old and those little teeny tiny letters are getting harder and harder to see!Got out a magnifying glass, man! Tha GQ still looks a LOT like a CO but close enough!! Thanks for the correction.Dave

Yep, got one for my 03 and just ordered a vibe one from ebay works great. Now here's the funny part. The one they sent me has a Toyota emblem on back. Matrix I guess? It has a panic button too. I don't think the original did, and yes it works.
