Wow clean work man. So satisfying watching someone install a radio so clean. Drives me nuts when an install is done half assed

[Militaryman]

Just ordered all of this for my new to me 2004 Tahoe. Thanks for the great how-to!

[brentmcgillis]

Great video, some would recommend disconnecting the battery. But you swam through cutting off the power like a champ. Thanks for sharing.

[cornchip]

Thank you! My friend and I do full audio installs. We have spent the last day searching for the correct wiring harness. This helped a lot!

Me and my 2006 GMC Sierra could use some pro tips. You make that look so easy and talk about nice and neat. I just spent the last 4 hours trying to get a Digital radio to even turn on but that CRUX might be a blessing thanks for the free tips man. You got a number I might need you tomorrow 🤣🤣🤣

That chime sounds a lot like the 1999-'02 chime. That's the chime I like the best.

[robertpapps]

One would never guess how easy it is. Thanks much!

[adamwilcher]

I was ready to buy a new unit thanks so much for saving me money and keeping me warm now

[davejohnson]

Awesome video! Simple, and stright to the point!

[ironhorse]

Very good tutorial. Thanks for not rambling on about nonsense. :)

[nathanguimond]

Thanks bro just ordered the whole kit for mine from the links you provided

[bryantspencer]

Man u are a pro, and your video makes it look easy. You can see everything yo did

The interface box glitched my EMC twice. 1st cost me $200 plus tow and second time i figured it out. Remove interface box, wired off/on straight to radio!

[pinkysgarage]

Great video the red wire did get me though, had to install a toggle switch to it as well as the ground have to flip it off and back on which allows DVD 📀 play as you drive

[tuckerschutte]

Can you connect the new stereo directly to the stock wiring harness? Or do you need to buy the adapter kit?

[jakedelizioso]

Very good video, right to the point. I do have a question though. Would I be able to get all the tool at Walmart? 😂 or do I have to wait for stuff in the mail?

[flyhog]

Is it possible to install an aftermarket radio and retain steering wheel controls by just getting a harness adapter without the interface? I have a 2005 Z71 Chevy Avalanche and I don’t care about on star but would love to retain my steering controls.

I’ve never had a stereo install and lose my key fob abilities but something about the Bose system just seems odd to me.

[terencestark]

Is it worth buying that "box" that comes with the radio adapter despite having neither wheel controls or OnStar? '04 Silverado 1500 LS

[southpawler]

I wired my 04 Silverado exactly like this video using a Boss stereo.the stereo works fine but after a few minutes the back of the stereo gets so hot you can barely touch it what would cause this

[williamstubbs]

Thanks for going into such precise detail for this installation. Now I can put my system together, thanks to you!👍✌
