Ian, that is a GM604 BCU, for cars with no external boot lock, and yes that means >5D model year.

These are reliable, to the extreme, why do you need one, and a new unit requires pairing using T4

Brian, as always thank you.
I don't need one but it was just hanging from a harness on a car I scrapped so I removed it. It's a case of keeping just in case
I left sensors on the car as I was getting to the point of having had enough of removing parts. A decision I hope I wont regret
Body panels, suspension and screens were my aim but I cracked the front screen some weeks earlier doing something else
