when the cell companies are no longer required to offer analog cell signals, all analog only onstar vehicles will no longer have onstar. though, technically, i think onstar switched off it's analog network on Jan 1, 2008, now that i think about it, but for regular analog service, feb 18th, companies are allowed to shut down service. --- if you have a home alarm system, make sure it's able to use hardline or digital radio/cell....
Well, if its useless, I might as well yank it all out. What does all that weigh? LOL. I might get a 50/50 balance yet, LOL.
I was initially thinking how in hades is a 2001 system analog, surely its digital. But then it dawns on me, that was 7 years ago.

but yeah, you could probably just pick up a compass/temp mirror off ebay without the onstar and swap it out. --- should be similar to late 90's gm trucks.
Cool, I may have to do that. Thanks for the heads up on that.

I think there was an option for just the compass and temp. I'll check on it, but it wont hurt my feelings any if I hit the onstar button and get a busy signal or something.
--- well i got the mirror in today....
you KNOW i had to disassemble and see how it was done----- Red spotlight gel covering the display!

Yeah, I guess I could have found several other ways to word that, in text alone it doesnt exactly convey that which I intended.
I'm telling everyone.
I will hunt you down.Quote:

You dont know her very well then. She could have OnStars turn-by-turn directions just to get down the street and she could very well still end up in the next state.

Can you tell me how to wire this up? I bought a mirror today with only the compass and temp. I got power to the mirror, and it comes on, states the direction, and the temp states "OC". How do I get the temp to work, and how do I calibrate the compass? I have a 97.Any help is appreciated.
thats what she saidQuote:
