I'm not installing the RF kit antenna I just want to use the key FOB that came with the vehicle, so do I just bypass that wiring.  The hood pin and the switch is mandatory?   Can I by the hood pin from your company?

Yes the guide previously listed shows rf kit as optional. So ignore the rf kit part and follow that guide i linked you.

Hood pin is strongly recommended for safety reasons.

RS-PB would be the part number for the hood pin and valet switch from us.

Great, Thanks.  Where on your site do I purchase the hood pin and switch?
commented Dec 22, 2016 by David Stewart2 (180 points)
It is not available on the website, only through authorized distributors and retailers.

You can also pick that up at any napa or autoparts store or electronics store...very common part.
