Default Installing remote starter, quick question?

I'm going to stick a remote starter in my '00 Silverado and I was wondering if I needed a security bypass module. I don't even think this truck has any kind of security. It's a no option truck and I get no security light in my message center like you do in a regular GM truck. I know when I tore apart the BCM in my stripper Camaro there was no security running through it. Any thoughs? Firgured I get a faster responce here than the truck site.

Damn it, I was hoping that I wouldn't have to deal with that. I though Pass Lock II was chip key set ups? The PN I was told is DEI 555L, hopefully that will work.

I'll tell you i'm no expert here...Yep it is an imobilzer bypass. I know when sales guys sell alarms they use the Directed install guides...that's where I got the info. I'm aware that you can sub out modules...a 555L may work fine. I may have misunderstood what you were looking for. PM me if you don't get an answer and friday i'll showm my lead alarm guru!!

Yep, I just read all about the Pass Lock set up. It looks like the 555L does cover 99-05 pick ups. It's alot easier of a hook up than I thought, only one wire to the BCM, one power, and two grounds.
