Thread: Stock Bose Stereo Replacement

Hey all,

I'm simply tired of having to burn CD's of my iTunes collection and want to replace the stereo head with something that will support MP3's and iPod connection but don't want to bugger up the look of the console.

I'm looking for suggestions. I'm not an audiophile per se but i want something that's going to sound good with the stock Bose amp. My other priority is not goofing up the look of the console and i also need something that will play nice with the HUD and SWI.

i'd appreciate suggestions (preferably with images)??

thanks,
dean

You won't find anything that works with HUD. If you want decent steering wheel controls make certain that the stereo allows PAC-SWI to plug in vs. using an IR sensor.

If you change out the stock radio then you've gotta say goodbye to the radio display on the hud. (unless u want to build ur own connection.)

As for the look, there are some mounting kits that blend better than what most stores sell. They have lettering in the grand prix font that glows to use of the extra space.

but if you really want it to look nice, then find one with a big display that just fits in the radio location.

OR you can install one of these
USA Spec iPod® Interface Connects your iPod to select 1994-02 GM factory radios at Crutchfield.com

I dont think that double DIN fit at all which is why many people try to find a way to blend all the extra space with the console.

And i think that the HUD will still work with the ipod adapter.

04+ fits double din. That's all.
