A.Rozell Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Right now i have the factory bose witht he 6-disk, and i want to upgrade it to a touch screen that fits in, gives me full functions of xm/cd/fm/ipod and maintains the steering wheel controls. I would like to try to put a newer 09' touchscreen from an avalanche in it. will this work, fit right in, or is there no way i can do it.

2001silverado364 Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 This the one? I don't think it'll work especially if it's turned on by the 07+ trucks lan data system, plus it will require A LOT of modification to fit it physically into an SS.

A.Rozell Posted January 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Yep, thats the one, and I would levae the CD player out but i figred it would hook up in same harness but never actually seen the back of one. anyone know a "cheap" touch screen that looks and functions just like this that will fit with factory controls and have ipod connect.

diggerdan11 Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 I don’t think that will work in our trucks. Get a Pioneer AVH-P4300DVD. It has great functionality and not too expensive. Awesome Ipd Controls. Everyone I talk to about them loves them. Not that expensive, and you can add the steering wheel controls Pioneer AVH-P4300DVD Steering Wheel Interface IPod Cord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.Rozell Posted January 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 thanks! does it plug right in to the factory harness? and does the ipod appear in the menue when you go through the sources via the steering wheel controls? those are the only two things i particularly care about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2001silverado364 Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 You buy an adapter harness and module, if applicable, and swi-jack and it will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No after market stereos just plug and play, they require a harness which will cost you $50-100 If you add the steering wheel interface that I posted earlier you should be able to operate the sources through the steering wheel, but i warn you wiring up the steering wheel interface is a pain in the butt. I would recomend having it professionaly done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2001silverado364 Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) Steering wheel controls actually couldn't be easier, tap one wire at the bcm, a ground, and ign. Then program the interface. Here's how to wire the swi-rc(replaced the swi-jack a while back) to a pioneer headunit. http://www.pac-audio...eer&swiOptions= Edited January 27, 2012 by Mr. 3/4 ton SS (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A.Rozell Posted January 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Thanks guys! I will try that one out. I do have on-star, I have an 04' with everything you could get with the SS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diggerdan11 Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Thanks guys! I will try that one out. I do have on-star, I have an 04' with everything you could get with the SS. Yous just need to make sure that you buy the wiring harness that works with onstar. I wouls seriously suggest having the install professionaly done if you dont feel comfortable doing it yourself. Now if you buy and aftermarket headunit you will loose your stock XM, and there is not way in intigrate them. My truck did not come with XM so I have aftermarket XM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrogomez816 Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 hey rozell post back on how it works out for you,, I'm also looking to put in a nav touchscreen in my 05 ss but i really want my steering controls to work to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.Rozell Posted February 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 I doubt I will install any of them if I cant get the XM to work. that is honestly the only thing i use. But i might find a factory one from the 04's because i know there are some out there from escalades and stuff that work in our trucks but my dad and i have to do a bit more digging around GM to see if we can get one haha.
