Ok, I want to swap my HU but I want to use my steering wheel controls and my factory bluetooth. Is this possible? If so what adapters do I need? I have an 09 SS with the Pioneer premium HU.

 

I have the GM-lan 03 harness and a steering wheel control adapter but the steering wheel adapter only works for Apline and a couple other head units. I was going to put it in mine but once I wired everything up it turns out my 4 year old Alpine was shot. I've been meaning to get everything together and list them in the classifieds. I'll get the model numbers tonight but it's very possible I have what you need.

 

Sweet! I contacted Crutchfield and they said I would have to lose the steering wheel controls. I thought that was crap.

 

Is the HU really a Pioneer Premium HU or is it a Panasonic HU with Pioneer Premium speakers?

I was wrong I have the GMOS-Lan-04, which is the wiring harness for the premier system. I also have a SWI-Jack from Pacific Accessory Corporation. It works with most JVC, Alpine Clarion and Kenwood Radios to bridge the gap from the steering wheel buttons to the head unit.

Let me know if that is what you need.

 

Ok, the Kenwood DNX5140 is the HU I want to put in. I have factory steering wheel controls, bluetooth and onstar. I would like to keep all of these working. I know I need the GMOS adapter for the chimes and what not, if I use the PAC adapter will that let me use BT and the steering wheel controls? The head unit I am getting does not have BT built in.

 

If your new head unit does not have BT I would bet that there isn't an adapt that would let you keep that functionality.

 

ok. Hmmmm, what to do. I am working at BB for a few more weeks and I can get a sweet deal on the Kenwood DNX5140 but the bluetooth is a must have for me.

 

The DNX6140 has built in BT if you can get a deal on that model.

 

And for vehicles with onstar, you need the gmlan-04 harness.
