Default Upgrading to a new keyless module

Good morning. I have a 2000 base and after my last keyless remote died I decided to upgrade to the 2001-2004 keyless module. I have obtained a used module, wiring pigtail and remotes, and still waiting on the new TPMS's.

My question is, how to go about programming the remotes. I believe the TPMS can be done through the DIC? I'm hoping I don't need the assistance of a Tech2, Any expert advice would be appreciated.

Rob

Quick question, does the 01-04 receiver use the antenna like the 97-00? I'm thinking not.

There's no antenna on the 01-04 receiver.

Looks like the 01-04 receivers are getting harder to find than hen's teeth. Had anyone used anything from later models? I.e what about the C6 or C7 systems. Will they work in a C5?

I just bought one from an online junk yard for $50. Installed it this morning with no issues. It appears the going rate on ebay is around 150, so they are still out there,
