Yes. The FCC ID, part number, and button configuration all need to match your original remote to ensure compatibility with your vehicle. For example, if your current remote doesn't have trunk release or remote start, you can't simply order a version with those features, since your vehicle isn't wired to support them.
What to compare
Even two remotes that look nearly identical can use different electronics inside. Before ordering, compare your existing key's FCC ID, part number, button layout, and overall shape against what you're about to buy.
Why the FCC ID matters most
The FCC ID is one of the most reliable ways to confirm compatibility, since it identifies the remote's exact communication protocol. Some vehicles support more than one compatible FCC ID depending on production date or trim level, so if you're unsure, we can help you check.
