On the Cobalt you do not have to worry about the HVAC controls as they do not overlap the radio.

Nice video Rich! You forgot to mention the radio bezel may have an airbag wire plugged into it. DO NOT turn the key ON with this unplugged! Also the car did not have HVAC controls, and I believe those overlap the radio at the bottom so 2 more 7mm bolts will need to be removed.

I'd like to know that as well and also how he removed the AC control unit without removing the surrounding radio/AC trim panel because I can see a bolt on each end where the AC unit attaches to. I'm thinking that it may have been removed before.

jackson jones driver info center I believe is just the little screen with the different info, the mileage should work, disconnect factory hu and see before installing aftermarket. The pioneer amp as with any factory amp will need special adapters for them to work with aftermarket but yes, the aftermarket radio should turn on by itself. A lot of stock amps don't just turn on with the car, they comm. With the radio so they know it isn't just any signal, its a security thing manufacturers like to do to annoy people, that's why certain electronic adapters are needed for an aFTERmarket HU to work with stock amp

@brandonfrankel1571 8 жыл бұрын
+ryan vapes Aftermarket is the way to go if you want to add more features or customization. However it is not necessary to get a new stereo if you want to add a subwoofer. You can buy a Line Out Converter which you splice into your rear speaker wires that gives you an RCA hookup for the amp then you just splice or tap a remote wire into an accessory(something that only has power when the car is on or running.

I havent done car audio stuff since high school. While buying a replacement pioneer head unit I had the guy at best buy tell me that the cars from 2007-up don't have the 5v red lin on the stock wiring in the dash. But I clearly see a red line that I would only prsume to be the 5v in. He was trying to sell me a $120 special "CHEVY" harness for it. I know that retailers like best buy have little tricks to get you to spend more money. We always had to fix problems the they caused. Any way, Is that true?
@brandonfrankel1571

+MaxinMaytrix they have a regular harness that has an ignition wire that hangs off seperately so that you can wire it into an Accessory via splice or fuse tap. I did mine (on a Chevy Cavalier) via fuse tap onto my wiper fuse, since it is only hot when the car is in ACC or ON.

Hey I removed a radio just like you did, the MP3 part of the radio was no good jumps all the time, so now I have a new radio the dealer says yeah this radio will work, BUT !! they want $185.95 to program it, umm yeah there's gotta be someone that knows how to get past GM's ripoff program. And DIY yourself, so did you program the new radio for the car you were putting it in...?

For anybody wondering about what Christina asked. No, everything will work just fine. Your car will run without issue. They're not like the old anti-theft units. But you will lose door chimes and turn signal sounds. They will work fine, but not longer make the audible click. You can buy a $100 PAC adapter to retain those features though. But most don't bother with buying it.
