Hello GPF!
My name is David Scott, and I am now the proud owner of a 2005 GP Base. This is the second W body that I've owned. The first was a 2003 Chev Impala LS. My car has pretty well no bells nor whistles, however, I have plans to change that. First, I want to do an interior swap.
I have been looking into installing heated leather seats and steering wheel radio controls. The radio controls seem straight forward enough, swap the rim and clock spring. I am installing an aftermarket head-unit at some point, so there will be no need to have my local dealership mess with my BCM. I chose a w body again because I wanted a comfortable yet fun people carrier. I live in Canada and one of the complaints that my passengers had with my leather swap in my Impala was the cold seats, so I have been looking at aftermarket seat heaters for the back seats. In my Impala, the heated front seats were contained in the seats themselves. Again I do not want to take my car to my local dealer to modify the BCM. If that is required, I will just install aftermarket heaters. I am installing a subwoofer in the back of the car, so I will already be running a big cable to the back of the car. I might just run it to a new fusebox with bunch of terminals, instead of having a bunch of inline fuses for all of these accessories. I will also be installing red LEDs because I have done that will all my cars so far and I see no reason not to.
This is a photosphere of the interior of my impala.
