Lightbulb 500A Tailgate

Can someone confirm that the 500A Lariat has a manual release tailgate like the XLT?
If so, thinking about getting the body color surround to replace the gray plastic on mine.

My 500A has (well, had) automatic tailgate release.

Well that sucks. Looking at the Lariat specs, it doesn't make it really clear. Shows the remote release as optional.
Will have to look around & see if I can find a manual release Lariat.

Actually, thinking about it, mine is a 501A. Does it show the 501A as being standard, 500A as being optional?

I can look at the window sticker tomorrow night once I'm home.
