A:AnswerLet them install it. Their work is guaranteed for the life of your ownership of the vehicle. It won't get messed up. They are trained to do simple radio installs. If you mess up the install, nothing will be covered in the event something goes wrong.
A:AnswerNo, it does not. It has a option for a Nav system. Or with apple play you can use Apple maps. Android ,I believe waze works. Waze is my preference. But Apple and Google are not the best of friends.
A:AnswerBest way to make sure is to talk to the geek squad. They can look it up in the system and let you know. It is a double din and I had to get a separate harness for the steering wheel controls. All of which they looked up based on my year make and model. 2007 GMC Sierra. I had a double din factory stereo in the truck to begin with. So just a harness and new face plate and it works and looks fantastic. The back up camera image is fantastic as well.
A:Answerit is ill leagal to watch a movie in the front.. if best buy installs it for you they have to by law install it to the e break. but if you can do it your self buy a bpass off amazon. then you can. but its technically ill leagel to do so
A:AnswerThere are interfaces for integrating to factory controls. Consult Geek Squad installers. If your A/C controls are on your radios display you may be stuck with it. high end manu. sell dsp interfaces that can "de-EQ" your system for use with new speakers and amps and allow you to tune for the new system.
A:AnswerNo. There is nothing in the online specs or in the settings on my unit that shows comparability to climate control systems. The iData link that is available does connect to your steering wheel controls. Everything works seamlessly with those controls. The Bluetooth connection is great and the first thing that happened is that the unit grabbed my entire contact list from my phone (with my permission). The sound quality is a major step above my old factory radio. Sirius XM, HD Radio, AM and FM radio are so much clearer and richer. I'm very pleased with this unit and the backup camera that was included.
A:AnswerIt should. I just had it installed in a 2009 Silverado Hybrid 1500 without Bose. We share the same body style. You can use the factory SirusXM antenna but you need to purchase a new tuner, which, for me, gave me a much better display of album art and song information. They did install a new microphone up in the top, left corner of my windshield and it works fine and you really don't see it. It comes with the radio. Additionally, it added a backup camera that I didn't have but did have to pay an installation fee.
