The remote control (fob) does not work for my 1995 Volvo 850 GLT. I have replaced the batteries, but still does not work. Can I get a replacement? and will the replacement be programmed? Can I buy a manual that will tell me how to program /reprogram the old one or the new? Thanks

$109 on keylessride.com

Product and Service Description
Price quoted is for one replacement keyless entry remote. This remote will only operate on vehicles already equipped with a keyless entry system.

All remotes shipped with battery and backed by a 30-day satisfaction guarantee and a 90-day warranty.

That's just the first thing that came up in a quick search. I have never done business with them; don't know anything about em.

On this remote issue, I have a 1993 GLT, and see every now and then second hand remotes on Ebay, they all stipulate model years but all look the same, is that a lack of knowledge on the seller's behalf or is there actually a difference in the remote? As to the setting instructions, does anyone have any that actually work then, they seem to also be flogging those on Ebay too, I think thats a bit of a cheek! Alternatively, I was considering doing the whole upgrade to a full starter/immobilzer kit etc does anyone have any recommends as to models for the 850?

Cheers

DEI makes excellent alarms. Prices range from $100 to $300 depending on the features you want. I say go all-out and get one with 2-way LCD pager remotes, remote-start, battery-under-volt-protect, auxilary control, and a bunch of other cool goodies.
