was that a factory option back in 89? If so how could I tell if mine came w/it?

The usual RPO code for Keyless Entry is AU0. Can you find that listed among the option codes on your RPO sticker? (Depending on year and model, the sticker is found in your trunk, stuck to the spare-tire cover under the carpeting, stuck to the underside of the trunk lid, or stuck to the inside of the glove box.)

1990 was the first year for keyless entry on the bonneville. but check yoru RPO codes Just in case.

Ok--I'll check the rpo'* out and let you know.

See if there'* any mention of it in your owner'* manual. If there isn't, you're definitely SOL, unfortunately.

My grandma has a 89 Olds 98. The dealership said several years ago that they could put in keyless for $900.

*chuckle*

*snort*

Okay, I can put it in for $850.

Let'* see: $37.85 for the kit; $912.15 for, um, labor...

(Yes, $37.85 will get you a simple BulldogSecurity keyless-entry unit as found via http://www.directwholesale.net/mall/default.asp )

Hey, I offered to do it for half the price, but she wasn't bitin'.

Whoops, I just noticed that should have been $812.15 for labor, not $912.15. Wouldn't want to rip anyone off, you understand...
