The RSE can still be used, no problem. On the back of the radio is a plug that powers the RSE and you must give this wire 12volts accessory to make it come on. I think the wire is GREEN/ black but you better use a DVM to be sure. It's a separate plug from the main 24pin plug. I get signal for the audio by running a set of rca's up to the headphone jacks on the side of the RSE. I tap them in and run them down to the AUX input of the new head unit. I've done this a dozen times, most need a RCA filter also...
