I will be installing a DEI 561T addon RS into a 2003 and 2005 Chevy Tahoe sometime soon, and would like to know if I sould use a 555L or 457G. What are the advantages/disadvantages of both? Thanks.

The 457G is a combination bypass and door lock interface that combines the functionality of the 555L (GM Passlock) and 555G (GM Passkey 3) transponder bybass modules, as well as the 456G, 456A, and 446B Databus Interfaces.

For the type of installation I am wanting ( 561T addon RS into 2003 Tahoe)  is the Databus module required or can I get by only using the 555L?

Its not needed for the 2003. I am uncertain about the 2005, I would have to double check that.

You can use the 555l on both of these. The 457g is easier to install though.

so the 457G can be used for both?

The 457g works 2003 and up no problem, same with the 555l or 556l. Either will work fine on either truck...

I recently received and have installed the 561T/555L into the 2003 Tahoe. I would like to power up the heated seats when using the RS. Can this be done, if so then how whould I do it? Also, since this is only something I'd want activated during the winter I would be putting a switch inline as to turn this functionality on/off.

I am still looking for an answer to my my previous posted question. Also, is it possible to prevent the RS from being activated using the lock switch in the car? It is odd that I can pulse the door switch and start the vehicle.

the 457G turns on the heated seats automatically if the temp is below 0 C.......

I didn't use the 457G. Are there other options?

sure, you can spend hours wiring in switches and relays and running wires inside the drivers door OR you could spend $49 on the 457G and do it easily and properly.....

which makes more sense to you???

Since I have already installed the 555L can I use the 456G( I believe this is the correct module) databus module and get the same result, or does it need to be the 457G? Any thoughts on the other question I had in regards to the lock switch? Thanks for the input.

the 456G doesnt do heated seats and cost the same or more.... do this... remove the 555L and sell it or keep it as a sweet memory, put the passlock wires back the way they were and hook up the 457G in 5 minutes ( it's about 6 wires) and off you go...

it should be set up such that you have to hit the lock button more than once to start the vehicle... how often do you sit in the vehicle and repeatedly bang away on your door lock switch?
