I've searched the forum and FAQ and can't seem to find out how to tell if I have an 03 or 03.5...

Does anyone know the build date range for the 03 vs the 03.5? Or anything else identifying?

Thanks

the difference should be the doggy door on the trunk on the '03. the '03.5 trunk should look more like the current trunks.

All the difference that i know of is that the truck lid is different.

Thanks for the replies guys!

Does anyone have a pic of the doggy door?

I assume it's a reference to the outline around the trunk lid? While the newer ones do not have this outline?

It has a handle to make it easier to open the trunk (I have to pull up my spoiler) and rubber button to release the trunk lock (03.5 and 04 owners have to do it from the dash).
