Hi Bob.
Just wondering - is it true/false that a previously used 9166200 4-button FOB can be reprogrammed for another 70 series?

myswedishparts.com is claiming that only new remotes can be programmed (98-00):

My local dealer is quoting $145 for labor to program two fobs I'm supplying. Plus a ~$26 software download (but it's not required on a 98 S70 according to you and others). I've read that the limit is three remotes. In any case, a lot to pay with no guarantee that it'll work.

Is only the VST dealer tool used for 1998 (b/c VCT2000 is meant for 99-)?

I've asked someone on another forum for the PIN code for my car.

For anyone in Western Canada - have you had remotes for a 1998 programmed for a more affordable price?

Thanks.
