Im looking into buying a keyless entry key fob from dodge since my truck is an st and didnt come with keyless entry. Does anyone know if just programing the key fob will work with the 4th gens? I heard all the brains are there but it just needs to be flashed

Fastfalcon,

In order to have keyless entry the vehicle does have to be equipped with power locks. I would recommend contacting your local Dodge dealer, as Cmerritt84 mentioned, you will have to have the the vehicle programmed. They will also be able to provide the correct Mopar kit that will compatible with your vehicle.

I hope this helps, let me know if you have any other inquiries.

Thanks for the info! My truck has power locks and windows so it should be possible. I'm going to talk to my service department when i get my truck in for the rear driveshaft tsb I recieved. I finally got the painted front facia painted and installed, and replaced my factory radio with a kenwood ddx419, which really sparks up the dash!

I installed my wheel flares today and the fit is awesome for aftermarket parts! I purchased these off eBay for 119$ they are made by P.U Technologies, I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for oem style flares. Espically when they are 400$+ at the dealership! I painted them myself along with the front facia and I think it makes the st look much more finished.

Now you need a blue grille. That will really look nice.

Yeah color matched grille and billet inserts, hopefully I will be picking up quad headlamps this weekend, I'm not a fan of the low model singles, they kind of suck haha

Installed 2010 sport dual exhaust today, took a whole
Half of an hour to install! I swapped the muffler for a custom y pipe. I also wired in Piaa fog lights behind the grill to an independent circuit with a switch placed in that useless pocket above the parking brake release.
