Dash bezel different for RKE?
The bezel trim on my new truck broke when I took it off. I'm changing out the dash harness so I can have rke. There are 2 gas versions, one says with remote door entry, one says without. Does anyone know if it really is a difference?

I think some of the RKE systems also had an alarm. One of the lower slots on the bezel will have a red theft icon with the RKE.
I don't recall what was there without RKE, but in the end it doesn't affect the operation of the RKE.

I didn't think it would affect the operation, but I didn't know if it would get in the way of the rke module without the cut out. But it's far back enough under the dash that it shouldn't matter

Yeah but even on trucks without the alarm, that icon is still there. I have one on my truck which has no alarm or RKE at all.
