The Dynolock will work with the key fob. All you have to do is wire it like my $10 DIY lock.

Edit: I checked the dynolock website. Their instructions show how to wire it so it will work with the key fob.

I also checked out the $125 pricetag on this item. I think I'm going to get in the tailgate lock business. I can make mine for $10 including wiring. If I could sell em' for $50, I'd be making a killing.
